CultureKeepers



I went to an awards luncheon on Sunday for Arizonans who have been "culturekeepers." In the ten years leading up to Arizona's centennial year (1912), ten people a year have been honored. The 100 honorees are an impressive and diverse group, such as tribal leaders, a Western saddle maker, and the creator of a popular children's television show. It was a great idea and the support of the Westin Kierland Resort & Spa in Scottsdale was both crucial and generous. If this hasn't happened in your community, it is an idea to consider. Truly a worthy effort.
