Hundreds of people were in attendance at the groundbreaking celebration, emceed by Kathy Tobin, former local news anchor and current Director of Program Development at Friends of the Homeless. With the Zanetti School – severely damaged by the June 2011 tornado that tore through Springfield’s South End – as a backdrop, speakers highlighted the history of Springfield, the rebirth of the South End neighborhood, and the energy and optimism that is filling the region.
