I was born and raised in Philadelphia but moved to the burbs when I married.

Our town is known for the "Kalamazoo Promise!" (if interested, I can give more details about that.) Also, NY Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, Pfizer and Stryker Corp, medical research parks, MSU Center for Medical Studies, Western Michigan University and Kalamazoo College, host to the biggest boys 16/18 tennis tournament in the US each August, just to name a few! Formerly known as the celery growing capital of the US, now plant growing producers. The Kalamazoo River was victim to the Enbridge Co. oil spill last fall. Still in the cleanup process.
