Default Wonderful!

One way to improve a neighborhood is to have good businesses and it certainly looks like your Association has a dedicated membership.

Congrats!

AWESOME !!

Looking forward to it !!

Scoats, I mentioned earlier about handing flyers out door to door, and you mentioned that maybe next year that would work. Last night I had another idea as well for next year.

Why not after you have the flyers printed out also hand them out on wednesday nights at the Pennypack music shows that they are now doing. There have been a bunch of people going to those shows lately, so that too would be a great way to spread the word !!

Put it on next years folder, because I'll forget all about the idea before then.

Maybe Scoats will remind YOU and YOU can hand them out at the Pennypack concerts

J/K. That is a good idea to drum up interest in anything going on in the NE. Lots of people attend these concerts.
In fact, I missed the concert last nite. If I don't get a reminder here on Phillyblog, forgettaboutit.

I'll hand them out. I've got no problem with that. I just know I'll forget all about it before next May, kinda like how you forgot about the concert last night.
