Table of Contents
Acknowledgments

They say it takes a village to raise a child, and it certainly takes the expertise and support of many to write a book. Many thanks to everyone at Avalon Travel, including acquisitions director, Grace Fujimoto, and senior editor, Erin Raber, the dream team that made Moon Kansas City a reality and kept me on task while answering my virtual avalanche of questions. Thanks also to map editor, Albert Angulo, a great email pal and cartography whiz, and graphics coordinator extraordinaire, Tabitha Lahr, for creating a visually pleasing final product and guiding me through the process.

Closer to home, I send my heartfelt gratitude to the many people who helped me along the way, including the Kansas City Convention and Visitors Association (especially Derek Klaus, for kindly providing numerous photos), Jasmyn LeFlore and the rest of the staff at the Omaha Convention and Visitors Bureau, the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau, Randy Attwood of The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, and Allison Smythe of Ars Graphica for submitting Rocheport photos. Alicia Ahlvers, Kevin Bundy, Casey Carlson, Dee Clark, and Jason Preu responded to various email queries and provided their expertise on various areas and activities in the city. To those who work at the Kansas City Public Librarys downtown location, especially the Missouri Valley Room, as well as the Plaza Lattland on 47th Street, thank you for allowing me to spend many, many hours in your establishment plugging away on the manuscript. And to Kelley Walker-Chance and Ashley of Marsh of Kelley Photo + Design and Katie Snustead of Mink Artistry, I could not have taken such a wonderful headshot without you!

Before this book existed, my family and friends helped nurture my dream to be a writer. To Jamie Young, Dana Hill, and Laine Baker-Alter, you made me feel at home in Kansas City, and now I cant imagine living anywhere else. And to Mom, Dad, Lisa, Len, Adam, Danielle, and Grammy, I would, simply put, not be where I am today without you. Last, but certainly never least, to Rob Schamberger, an artist, fellow writer, and my husband-to-be. From road-tripping to proofreading to offering limitless encouragement and perspective, you helped make this possible and for that I am eternally grateful.
