Buy Local Campaign
At the July BBG meeting, I briefly discussed an initiative I'm involved in on behalf of the Bay Business Group to look into a Buy Local campaign, which is something we've been talking about for a long time. Here's the link to an organization, AMIBA, that helps other groups nationwide launch such initiatives.
AMIBA shares proven resources, professionally-designed marketing materials, and best practices so groups like ours don't have to reinvent the wheel. Please take a few minutes to look at what they have to offer. There's also a section of research on the benefits of Buy Local campaigns, explaining how it could be of great value to all of us in getting consumers to buy more from independent businesses like ours. If you're interested in being on a subcommittee of this local group exploring the concept, please let me know.
Sincerely, Diane Burr, BBG President

Kids' Playwriting Festival
The Twin Beach Players are proud to announce the performances of the 6 winning Kids' Playwriting Festival entries, which will be held weekends August 2nd- 11th at the North Beach Boys and Girls Club, located at 9021 Dayton Ave. North Beach, Md. Performances will be held Friday and Saturday evenings at 7 p.m. and Sunday afternoons at 3 p.m. Tickets are value priced at $5 a person to ensure that families can afford to see these talented children bring these imaginative stories to life.
Each show was written and directed by Maryland children in what has become a staple in the Twin Beach Players' commitment to educating and enriching the lives of Maryland children by allowing them to experience every creative aspect of a theatrical production from inception to final performance. Each year, six winning plays are chosen from dozens of entries submitted by a panel of professional theatre personalities. There were twenty one play entries this year.
We will be hosting a special "Meet the Playwright" night at the performance on Saturday, August 3rd. We are inviting every playwright who entered this year for a meet and greet and awards ceremony. We encourage all press and media to attend that evening for interviews and photos. To reserve your complimentary seat, please contact producer, Regan Cashman at 410-474-4214 or twinbeachregan@msn.com
