Shopping event this week aimed at raising awareness of what Nevada has to offer

Nevada Daily Mail

"Just get out and go someplace you haven't been; see something you haven't seen," in Nevada.

That's the whole purpose behind a grass roots community event that's the brainchild of Nevada's biggest grass roots promoter, Doug Harper.

Intended as a fun way to get local people to see more of what Nevada has to offer and to shop locally, the city-wide shopping day and music fest. Today, Friday and Saturday, local residents are urged to get out and about in Nevada. A map marking the locations of local businesses of interest that are featured on www.experiencenevadamo.com, a Web site meant to be a grass roots gateway to the community, is available at Cash 'N' Dash locations in Nevada; but Harper's quick to add that other businesses are just as worthy of a visit, even though they might not be marked on the map. The Web site, Harper said, is just another way for people to find what they want in Nevada; one more connection tying the community together.

On Saturday, at 8 p.m., Eric Lane Gulliford will perform "unplugged" at the Armadillo Sound Studio on the east side of the Square, in a two-hour acoustic performance. The $5 admission charge can be paid at the door of the studios live room located at 129 N. Main.

When I open this link I don't get anything about our community, I get Las Vegas and Reno and real estate information. Is this possibly an incorrect link?

It would be nice if all the money that disappears to walmart would actually stay local. of course they do provide all those high paying jobs.

If they still need one person on the new "board" I would think Doug Harper would be an obvious choice. Great website and he has the interests of this city as #1. Keep up the good work Doug.
