Bring On The Fun! Lenses We've Created Showcasing Area Events

Probably the most fun we have had at Squidoo in creating lenses on our area's fun stuff. Until we started creating these lenses, it never occurred to us there is so much to do in our area. Some of the income earned from our lenses in contributed to Save The Children and/or World Vision.

And Here Are A Few More Fun Ones!

Doesn't that feel good?
