Kenneth and his family live in Potomac, Md.. His three daughters are all coming out of college and going into business. The youngest is a senior. We talked about this in December, and he wants the right facility to rehearse both the circus and ice shows.

She was the first member of her family to go to college, and her parents wanted her to stay in Baltimore, but Smith gave her over $10,000 in a grant for her first year and that made the difference. She'd lived in Baltimore for 18 years, really didn't know anything about how people lived in other places, and we changed her life.

What Mr. Feld wants is the right facility configured to accommodate a circus. It has to include rigging, elephant doors, a floor piped and plumbed for ice shows, and an arena capable of seating 5,000 to 6,000 people for premieres and shows.

Mr. Feld will personally reach out and start a dialogue with local leaders that includes a commitment to be here.

Sons- and daughters-in-laws are going after family businesses now -- and it's only going to increase.

Accept the fact that girls squeal when they're happy or confused or excited or scared or because they just saw a certain boy in line.
