Heart eyes for the City of Fountains + our readers.

KCtoday turned two on Wednesday, Aug. 9, and we’re celebrating the only way we know how: with you. We asked for your favorite parts of KCtoday every morning + why you love our newsletter (not as much as we love you). Per usual, you showed up big in our inbox.

“Every morning I love waking up before anyone else, drinking my coffee in a quiet house, and reading KCToday to get my daily news and upcoming events at 6 a.m. This is my ‘me’ time.” — Reader, Kimberly C.

“I don’t ever read much so for me to say this is so helpful that I read it weekly is a big complement. I am always looking for fun things to do in KC. Great job to your team. Love it.” — Reader, Brian B.

“KCtoday is my go-to source for all things Kansas City. My friends always ask how I knew about an event or a restaurant, and I tell them KCtoday. Thanks for all you do!” — Reader, Darlene B.

“Happy birthday KC Today! I love learning about local events, KC history, and all of the happy news you share! I look forward to it every morning.” — Reader, Susan B.

“I’m always learning of new places to go, events to attend, things to try because of KCToday! I love learning the status of projects and the history in our town. KCToday is my favorite morning read!”
— Reader, Jan F.

“I just moved to Kansas City and your newsletter has been a wonderful way to get to know the city. I have friends coming to visit in a month and I saved several of your suggestions on tours and places to eat, shop and drink.” — Reader, Jane P.

Thanks for all the love. We can’t wait to see what is in store for year three.
