This year, we've launched a 13-city promotional tour leading up to the
Afterschool Alliance's annual celebration of Lights On Afterschool. A
12-foot inflatable light bulb started a journey last week in Dallas, the
home of our sponsor, the JCPenney Afterschool Fund, and is crossing the
nation - from L.A. to D.C. - to promote Lights On Afterschool! Click
