You have touched on the important part of life to appreciate each day and embrace the moment...small town life for sure and good example for sprawling urban lifestyles.

What a fun article. Don't you wish all of America was that close? I have read Cynthia's articles before and she brings a really great emotional touch to everything. I can't wait till your next article.

I enjoy reading your fun, positive articles in our local "Insider" newspaper. Not only three cheers for the Bobcats, but way to Cynthina for making the big city paper!

You never cease to amaze me. Your articles just get better and better. To capture this ritual and express it to other readers, you did succeed. I felt the same way when I first experienced this ritual. I've lived here in Panguitch for four years. This town is American. They care for their kids and the community support is amazing. Living in SL all my other life, I am grateful for living this experience. It's been a pleasure.

Another "GR8" article. I love when the underdog shocks the world..(community). It is such a great thing to cement a community together. My kids say "baseball is life", in this case it is certainly true. Small town life is still alive and well in America! Hooray!

I love this story. This is why I love people so much, there really is good in everyone, this is how we show that we really love and care about each other, even if we do not know them personally. I love this!!

Amazing! When is the next column? Can we have more?

I also love this story. I need to let our small town editors of our paper read this article. You are still very refreshing and inspiring from afar.

I really enjoyed the article. I was first thinking, Oh No!a really bad accident, even a fatality! but was relieved when It was the town's tradition to show support to their team returning from a game, even the state championship. Whether it was a loss or a win! It was great to read about good things that happen in real life, and not just "see" them in the movies. Great job Cynthia for spotting a Positive story.
