Here’s a copy of the email bulletin that just went out…

Thanks to everyone who sent me suggestions, and to those of you who forwarded photographs for the screen saver (not sure what I’m talking about - then check out the blog at: http://www.NashobaValley.com/blog)

I will take all of your suggestions and try to implement as many as possible.

Also, I’ve entered a ton of new events in the Community Calendar. If you’re looking for something to do over the next couple of weeks, check it out. Also, if you’re involved in some kind of community or charitable organization, and would like to post your events, just contact me and we’ll set you up with a Community Leader account. You can post all your events!

I also wanted to thank the folks who entered the weekly contest. We received a few entries, but I’d like to see a lot more. And this week’s contest theme is:

I want all of your tips on what makes the Fall season such a special time in the Nashoba Valley. Are there special places to “leaf peep”? Do you have a favorite Fall activity? Are there some upcoming events that make the most of the Fall weather in the Nashoba Valley?

Just make sure you are registered at the site, and then enter the contest. With only a few entries, you have an excellent chance to win. And, with the tips you’ll find on the blog, your chances are even better (and who couldn’t use a $100 Amazon gift certificate a few months before the winter holiday season?).

Now, here’s last week’s winning entry…

P.S. Don’t think I’ve forgotten about putting a picture of myself smiling up somewhere. I will have my wife take a picture as soon as she and I can both get in the same room at the same time, what with all the kids activities happening right now (Pop Warner football, soccer, band, chorus, karate, homework, new puppy, etc.). Shouldn’t be too much longer. And I’m sure you can’t wait (yeah, right!).

P.S.S. I’m going to be phasing out the pre-launch list next Friday, October 6th. So, if you want to keep receiving great info about what’s happening in the Nashoba Valley, make sure you register at http://www.NashobaValley.com.
