    Bonus Podcast: Kathryn Wynkoop and Bello Machre — Unstoppable

    In today's bonus podcast, we sit down with Kathryn Wynkoop, a remarkable client of Bello Machre, an organization dedicated to supporting individuals with developmental disabilities. Kathryn has been a resident for about 20 years and, as we learned, nothing stands in her way! Despite any disability, Kathryn holds down two jobs, loves her Bello Machre family, is active in her church, and is preparing for a long-awaited vacation! Did someone say disability? When you walk through the front door of Bello Machre, you will likely be greeted by Kathryn, who is a resident as well as an employee. When you walk in the front door of the Piup Moyer Rec Center in Annapolis on a Wednesday afternoon, Kathryn's smiling face will be there to offer a hearty hello! Because of the Bello Machre family, Kathryn's life is more rewarding and more fulfilling; and they have been doing it for our neighbors for more than 50 years! We also chat with Dr. Robert Ireland, the President and CEO of Bello Machre, about the changes he has seen in his time at the helm, and it is encouraging, despite more work to be done. We discuss the various programs available to residents and people with disabilities living at home throughout the State. And on June 13th, there is a great way to get to know the folks at Bello Machre with Every Step Counts, a fun walk/bike/skate-a-thon and party at AACC. Truly an incredible organization, and truly some inspiring people--I'm looking at you, Kathryn! Have a listen!
