To our Readers:
Being a huge fan of British literature, I have always loved the sentiment “Hope springs eternal in the human breast” from Alexander Pope’s “An Essay on Man.” Does such a blessing spring with even more aplomb during the spring? I have always thought so and take great pride in being among fellow South Philadelphians as we prepare for what promises to be a satisfying season.
Through my time as an intern, freelancer, and staff member, this issue marks my eighth Spring Guide/Readers’ Choice endeavor, and, I must say, your votes in our balloting led me, staff writer Bill Chenevert and contributor Joseph Fontanazza to engage with a wonderful collection of winners. We look forward to similarly glowing nominations for our Rising Stars youth issue set for June 2 and our Fall Guide/Difference Makers publication due out Oct. 6. Thank you for caring so much about our community. Here’s to a spry spring for all!
