Last week was National Dispatchers Week, and some "Y&R" cast members headed downtown to pay L.A.’s 9-1-1 dispatchers a visit and thank them for the important work they do. The dispatchers are huge "Y&R" fans and were thrilled when Don Diamont and Joshua Morrow showed up one morning to say hello! Later that day, Kate Linder, Davetta Sherwood and little Darcy Rose Byrnes got a special ride downtown in a police car to visit the dispatch center. Seven-year-old Darcy was excited to take her first trip in a "black and white," but it was old hat for Kate, since she participated in the same event last year!

Once they arrived at the dispatch center, the kind ladies in the communications center presented the actresses with some delicious chocolate chip cookies. After a fun snack, they headed in to meet the dispatchers, pose in photos and sign autographs. The dispatchers demonstrated what their difficult jobs are like, and Kate and Davetta even got to listen in on a few 9-1-1 calls. Everyone had a great time, and the actors can’t wait to go back again next year!


Don Diamont makes a very handsome 9-1-1 dispatcher.
