Used to listen to Dulfer when she was touring playing with Pink Floyd.....

She toured with Van Morrison too. That is how I came across this great musician.

I'm going to assume spelling (if one can dare mention such a consideration on a train forum) and proof-reading are not part of the 15. :mrgreen:

The sign maker would probably get blamed.
You know no one from the school system would make a mistake like that.

Responsibility for the spelling error has been claimed by the Blue Waters Group. The company does work for the city of South Bend’s redevelopment commission to promote the city.

“I feel terrible. It’s a mistake we made and we’re guilty of it, and responsible for it. and we take full responsibility for the error,” said Patrick Strickler, president of the Blue Waters Group.

Best concerts I've attended and not in any order. Bob Dylan in St. Louis, Jethro Tull in St. Louis (great), Rolling Stones in KCMO, Moody Blues KCKS, Uriah Heep in KCKS (I blame them for my loss of hearing, but my fault), Eagles at a multi group concert we promoted at State Fair grounds in Sedalia, MO, The Who in KCMO, Steve MIller Band in KCMO, Santana in KCMO lots more that I can't remember now. Worst concert I can remember, "Gordon Lightfoot". I think everyone was so depressed after listing to his downer songs they just wanted to go home, I know I did.

Wayne,
Did Blue Waters fix the sign? The info doesn't say.
They ought to give the schools free use of the signs for several years.

Fixing things in not newsworthy, never-the-less, the much maligned Fox News reported, "Patrick Strickler, president of Blue Waters, said, 'We jumped on it and immediately had it taken down by Burkhart [the billboard company].'"

The corrected message now reads, "15 best things about our public schools."
