I wrote back with apology — had no idea as member that rules had changed and left the group *eeks*.

If money’s not an object for you, you may want to try this out as local Stephanie Herrera is broadcasting the events via video on Durham Region Social Events’ Facebook page.

Me, I don’t pay for community advertising and left the group to avoid any future embarrassment, and now this group has 513 members.

What an awesome and well needed website Paul Feldman (Computing By Voice) – great idea!  Way to go DREN (Durham Region Employment Network) and DRLTB (Durham Region Local Training Board) for recognizing a good idea and working together to make it happen.

Be proud – you have made Durham Region and even better place to live, work and play. Way to go!

The Durham Region Love Campaign will be building a network that will spread the positive, beauty and love. Pictures of local areas, all seasons will be continuously created, along with picture layouts of special events. From time to time stories of positive and motivational things from local communities will be promoted through the network. Non profit and charities can use the network to promote themselves and fundraisers. An overall positive view of Durham Region and the communities within will be focused on, without negative influences. Only the beauty, positive and loving will be passed on!

To support and promote this, Community Digital Networks will be created to allow local businesses to assist in promoting the positive, beauty and love from Durham Region.

Through advertising on the digital network, businesses support the Durham Region Love Campaign. For the minimal cost of $25/month an advertising space will be created and placed throughout the Whitby Digital Network. An initial photo session and basic graphics work is included with the digital network & the digital network breaks down into 3 areas that the ads will be visible.

Digital Picture Frames:
The ad will be placed on the network of frames located at various locations throughout Whitby. The locations may vary from time to time but a minimum of 10 locations will be maintained at all times. The locations will be found on the website for the Durham Region Love Campaign that also contains links to each business advertising along with placement locations of frames. The frames will display a combination of images from the location placement, Whitby and Durham Region. The images will be updated 4 or more times throughout the year.

Social Networking:
Not only will the ads be placed within content created for the Durham Region Love Campaign. The campaign utilizes social networking sites that we will work with you to create an action plan to build, maintain and co-operatively work with the other businesses to promote your business. The main networking sites being utilized by the Durham Region Love Campaign are: Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, others will be added in the future.

Printed Media:
There will be posters, flyers and other media created to promote activities by Durham Region Love Campaign. Small ads will be placed for those businesses advertising on the Whitby Digital Network.
