See You Around the Park
I'm leaving Patch. Thank you everyone for your readership and contributions to the Severna Park site.
Friday is my last day as editor for Severna Park Patch. Thank you for sharing your triumphs, challenges, opinions, tips and advice with me over the past two years.
It's been a great ride with Patch, one that has inspired me professionally and personally.
A heartfelt thank you to the many community bloggers who are sharing their opinions on the Patch and creating a platform for conversation on a variety of topics. Most importantly, I want to thank you for reading.
Please continue to upload announcements and events.
If you have any questions or story ideas, email severnapark@patch.com.

Leslie, while I am sad to see you leave Patch, I wait eagerly to see what you have in store for Severna Park and beyond. It has been a true honor and privilege to get to know you and work with you on Patch.
From scooping the national efforts of StartSchoolLater.net right here in Severna Park, snagging a video of Mark Teixeira, allowing me to be one of the Top 100 Local Voices on the Patch network and growing one of the more popular Patches (almost 2,000 likes!) your hard work and impact have clearly been evident. Your shoes, indeed, will be tough to fill.
Best wishes on all your future endeavors, and we'll see you around the Park!
