The April Local Biz is hot off the press and it is hot!!! My featured business of the month is Roberts Towing and Repair. Tom is a great hometown guy! Check out my pic with him on the front page.
Lets see...whatelse is in the Local Biz...there are plenty of great local businesses that advertised for April (thanks advertisers!) so please check them out.
The big thing is this weekend - we have lots going on with Easter! There are egg hunts for the kids. 10am on Saturday at the Roberts Park Building and 1pm Saturday at the SCC Middle School fields. Should be fun! I want to take Colton. He would have a blast!
There is also a Benefit Dart Tourney at the Sidetrack and L&Ms on Saturday. Call Angie Potting at 715-781-3325 for more details. Sounds like fun!
I have a new addiction, it is called OrGano Gold Healthy Coffee! The past few years I have been enjoying an occasional mocha or latte. Then I got worse and had to have it! I was trying very hard to ween myself off this addiction, but it would only last a little while. I love chocolaty mochas from the Bean Bag in New Richmond or Dish and Spoon Cafe in River Falls - but then I was turned on the OrGano Gold! Brad Parrott sells it and if you want to learn more about this "healthy coffee", go to www.copioushealth.organogold.com. It is a great alternative to your regular joe!
Also, one last thing, thanks Tera for kicking my butt last night at Boot Camp! It feels great to be sore again and sweat!
I will have more later, I have to go to a Candidate Coffee for Bob Loberg, he is running for Pierce County Judge and I've been working with him on his campaign for months now.

What's going on this weekend!
WOW - I'm not sure how the weeks are going so fast, maybe its the weather. We just can't ask for better weather. I suppose unless you are a snowmobiler. Either way, it was a long cold winter and I just love the sun! That was, of course, until I crunched my sunglasses. Anyone know of a local spot to get a nice pair of sunglasses?
We've got some great community things going on this weekend. Starting out Friday night with the Annual Fish Boil at the Hammond Golf Club from 4-7pm. Proceeds go to Extendicare Foundation. Great food for a great cause!
Let me see, what else...On Saturday morning, the Hammond Community Library will hold their Spring Breakfast at Trinity Lutheran Church, 1250 Broadway in Hammond from 7:30-Noon. Free will donation for a yummy breakfast of pancakes, eggs, sausage, ham, baked goods, fruit, juice, coffee and milk. There is also a bid-on-a-basket auction and coloring activities for the kids.
The Hammond Hotel is also having Jambo Bones Acoustic Guitar on Saturday night starting at 9pm.
So that's the Buzz on the Local Biz. Chat with you soon!

The Blog for the Local Biz!
Hello everyone and welcome to the blog of the Local Biz! I just have to say thank you for checking up out!!!
Yesterday was a huge day for the Local Biz. I spent all day at the Hammond Showcase and the SCC High School and met tons of people and handed the Local Biz out all day long. Some people had already seen the Local Biz and some people hadn't.
Not only did I get a chance to meet people, but I also handed out advertising information and the Local Biz to all the vendors at the Showcase. What a great opportunity for the Local Biz, ASIL Design and Quick Draw Solutions. Not to mention all the other businesses that participated in the Showcase. It was a huge success! (Thank You Showcase Committee)
What I plan do to with this blog is keep you up to date with what is going on in the area. I also want to dedicate myself to the 3/50 project and let you the viewers know exactly how I will spend my $50 per month with local businesses. The month, the entire $50 will be spent with the Community Education and Fitness To Go. I (Lisa). I started Tera Busker's Fitness Bootcamp and the cost for 8 classes is $56.
BUT - I also would love to stop in to the Roberts Cafe and have breakfast. It has been so long since I ate there. They have a wonderful Sunday breakfast. Maybe next Sunday! Then there is my new favorite drink - OrGano Golf coffee. Sold locally by Brad and Amy Parrott. It is a wonderfully healthy alternative to lattes and mochas that I love so. I will be purchasing some of that real soon.
Oh - I guess I did spent $20 with Joy Peterson and Tastefully Simple. I purchased my favorite Seasoned Salt.
That is it for now! Chat with you soon...Lisa
