Today I spent some time at the Community Expo put on by the Glendora Chamber of Commerce. Okay, okay... I spent the WHOLE time at the Community Expo. And let me tell ya, I'm glad I did. I met a lot of great people and am excited about what will come from that. I knew it would be smart for me to go down there and promote myself a little bit, but I had no idea what benefits would start to present themselves.
I went there expecting to introduce myself to some of the local businesses and hand out some cards. Then return home and hope the effort would eventually pay off. Instead I found myself really connecting to people. As a matter of fact, I almost didn't have enough time to hit every booth! Everyone was very friendly and interested in The Chalkmobile. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.
I think one of the best aspects regarding The Chalkmobile is how it allows me to be more involved in the community. In turn it thrives on that involvement. After today I not only feel more involved than ever but also have a clear direction I am heading toward being even more so. The Chalkmobile will no longer just be that crazy van people see driving around... I mean it still will be... But in addition there will be even more interaction with it!
I won't be giving away too much more just yet. Just be sure that you are going to see a lot more of it in the coming months. Including art, advertising, community events and collaborative efforts with local businesses. I can't wait till you see what I'm chalkin' up next!
Until next time
Don't hate, [ART]iculate!
