People have suggested I just thank everyone and be done with it. But the fact is, even with this amount of space, I could never thank everyone who's contributed to Pioneer Days.
Six years ago I picked up the Sun and read Pioneer Days was being cancelled. I couldn't believe it. Chris goaded me saying, "so do something about it". I called Ken Kensey, Tom Newton, Lang Capasso and Bill Truex and asked if they'd support my effort. They all said yes and I started blasting emails to everyone I could think of regularly and Debbie Marks of the CRA set up the first meeting. I didn't know a thing about Parades or the history of Pioneer Days. I'd been in it twice, that was it. I later realized half the people in that meeting knew more than I did.
