A Wonderful Spring Fling
Nevertheless, you are encouraged to read our press release on Pitchengine; listen to the Globespan TV interview; watch that amazing video and sign our Guest Book with an encouraging comment for what we accomplished.
And, what did we accomplish? We brought a community together...in a wonderful way...a cost-effective way that benefited both buyers and sellers. We used mutual collaboration and the giving of a mutual uplift to strengthen our community. Even Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger took note of what we attempted to accomplish and applauded our efforts. In fact, you are invited to download, print to photo paper and frame the wonderful PDF sent by Marty Keller, Small Business Advocate for the State of California, on behalf of Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
For those of you around the world who helped this small community in Northern California in some fashion make history...via social media, I thank you.
Sincerely,
Lamar Morgan

Spring Fling Captures Canadian Attention

Who would have expected a Canadian living in Toronto would be helping to spread news of a shopping center festival in Hidden Valley Lake, CA? But, that is exactly what is happening. And, he is not only doing it on Globespan TV, but transferring that enthusiasm online to Twitter, Ryze and Squidoo. He is even encouraging others to do likewise by showing them how to retweet. For those of you who know how to retweet, here is Towncrier's retweet message - "N. Ca. Bring family & join us on May 16th for Hidden Valley Spring Fling. Freebies galore. http://budurl.com/62t6."

- Community only comes together when we each say yes by action & that's when real magic happens. I believe it was Ghandi that said, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." It looks like your community really believes that. Wishing you a magical weekend.
