Field Trip

On Friday, I went to Minnesota Public Radio with the St. Louis Park Junior High School "Breakfast Buddies" and the members of the Junior League committee. It was fun. Although the girls were not initally excited to go, once they saw the beautiful modern offices, and the friendly and passionate staffers, they got pretty excited. One of the most interesting things that my group learned was that fame is relative. The kids were very excited to know what "famous" people had played in the studio. When Steve, our tour guide said Yo-Yo Ma, the kids were like who? I thought it was interesting that they had mot considered that some people outside of their immediate frame of reference, might actually be famous to someone else. All in all very good.
