March 2010 Happenings

[asphoto]

In the past I did a weekend thread every week, I have been kicking around the idea of making something similar but for the whole month. Several people liked the idea as I gave a quick view that is easier to read than the Photo Op Calendar.

What I do is I list local activities that could be a photo opportunity or just something you and your family may just want to go to. The list is chronological and gives brief discriptions and will link to any threads created for that even. Kind of like a what's going on one-stop-shop. If you recommend an event please give me the name of the event with a brief discription and a link to their website if they have one. Enjoy!

If the name is dark blue then it is not linked to a thread; dark green means it is linked to a thread and you can click the name to go to that thread.

So here is the listing for March:
