Daily Dose: Students Get Legal Experience, Baseball Victory

At Clayton-Richmond Heights Patch, we're all about equipping you with local information that's useful and relevant. That's why we're introducing this new feature aimed at telling you in the morning what we'll be working on throughout the day.

We'll also ask a question to generate conversation; share a few links to other media coverage of our area; and offer a parting word or two to get your day off to a good start.

As always, we want to serve you. So tell us what you think and let us know what we're doing well and how we can improve. Send me your thoughts by emailing nate.birt@patch.com, by posting a comment to our Facebook page or by tweeting me at @claytonrhpatch.
