On Sept. 24, I volunteered at a Katrina benefit concert entirely organized by local high school students and recent grads.

Through the course of the day, as bands from western suburbs played and were cheered by students from the east side and vice versa, area residents stopped by to peek in and smile. It was loud and modern music, yet not a complaint. Everyone understood upon seeing the handmade Katrina signs that these kids were extraordinary."
