Blue Springs Family Week 2007
Welcome: We appreciate your allowing us the privilege of sharing an element of our community life that is of immeasurable importance.

Many communities brag about their strengths and successes. Some cities have great athletic teams, others have incredible art displays, and many have thriving historical projects. Each of these represent a worthy priority in a community.

In Blue Springs, we likewise enjoy our sports teams, art, and historical accomplishments. However, we have added another achievement of great significance, "Putting Families First".

Thank you for stopping by. We invite you to join us and encourage you to strengthen families in your community.

Consider This:  Charles Francis Adams, the grandson of second president of United States was a successful lawyer, a member of U.S. House of Representatives, and ambassador to Britan. Amidst his responsibilities, he had little time to spare. He did, however, keep a diary. One day he wrote, "Went fishing with my son today—a day wasted!" On that same date, Charles’s son, Brooks Adams, had printed in his own diary, "Went fishing with my father today—the most wonderful day of my life".
