Hello All! I can't believe it is already the 6th of April. The weather is beautiful, it was a great Easter Weekend and now we are ready to start making this a successful month.
First off - it is time to start a new 3/50 project month. If you aren't familiar with the 3/50 project, it is simple, just spend $50 at 3 or more local businesses and you will be helping our more than you think.
You help the business - and you keep "your" money in the community so it re-circulates. Just think about it. I have committed to it and I would love to hear how you are spending your 3/50 project money! Please comment here on my blog.
Starting out my 3/50 project this month is a visit to the Hazelnut Tree in Baldwin for a yummy iced mocha last Thursday, and then a visit to the Bean Bag Coffee Shop in New Richmond, this morning for a great carmel latte. Not a ton of money spent yet, but at least I started out spreading it out. It might be more than three places this month!
Don't forget to use your Carbone's coupon from the April Local Biz. I think I'm going to use mine this weekend for Saturday night pizza and a movie!
Our website is up and running now! Go check out www.TheLocalBizOnline.com. I'm very very excited about it. It isn't anywhere done yet, but still working on it. At least you can see a list of where to find the Local Biz! That is exciting. I will have lots of stuff finished up by the time the May Local Biz is out.
Here's what's going on this week: The Hammond Golf Club has their league meetings for Senior Men and Men's leagues, Thursday, April 8th. Senior Men at 10am and Men at 7pm. Also, the Indoor Garage Sale sponsored by the Roberts Ribbon Reapers 4-H Club is this Friday and Saturday, April 9 and 10. More info coming up, but you can donate clean gently used items on Thursday, April 8th from 5-8pm at the Roberts Park Building.
That's it for now! More to come soon, if you are interested in advertising in the Local Biz, please email Lisa at LisaLeaChristensen@gmail.com
