"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."


It's been almost a month since the 10% Shift Launch Party (time flies when you're having fun)... and LLF has gained a number of new local business members! Log on to our website to check them out!


LLF has also had the privilege to partner up with Michael Furlinger at Terrace Theater for the showing of the documentary "Food, Inc." If you missed the opening showing on Monday, check out the Terrace's website for further showings... It runs through Thursday, August 13th. We promise you won't look at your food the same way again!


Another reminder to keep SHIFTING! It's amazing the things that can be accomplished if we decide to dedicate ourselves and work together... (hence, the title of this blog.. a quote by anthropologist Margaret Mead). So continue to support your local businesses!! Also, keep an eye out for the second edition of our Directory of Local Independent Businesses. We hope to have them printed and ready to distribute mid-fall.
