March 20 is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE KID DAY sponsored by Camp Fire Boys &
Girls.

Every adult is asked to deliver a "loving letter" to a child or children in
his or her life.   The goal is that children of all ages will receive at
least one letter.  "Saying 'I love you' is wonderful, but when in writing,
a child can hold on to those precious words, reading and cherishing the
message.  A letter can last for days, years, even generations." said Kathy
Lee Gifford, national spokesperson.
