 Hello Charlotte!
The current email list for your area is 60! Thank you for sharing SB with your friends. Welcome new readers! I am a busy mom in Apex, NC and I created Social Butterflies in my need to find a kid/family events resource that was quick and easy to read and came with recommendation on activities that a "mom like me" would find interesting for my family. I love promoting farmers' markets, community service events, consignment sales, family fitness (5k's) and certainly church and school events. Social Butterflies Raleigh was started as a service to my community and continues to be my motivation. I am also very passionate about promoting at home and small local business. What is your business??
A couple years back the Raleigh group created a "Green Issue". Readers submitted their favorite green tips for the newsletter. We want to hear the ways your family is "green" in April's SB issue!
I would love to post pictures of your families at Social Butterflies suggested events. Send me some cute pics!
Have a great March!
Warmly,
Cary
