Hi everyone. My wife needs our help. She has entered a contest with the US Chamber of Commerce. She owns a Natural Food Store and is wanting to open a juice and smoothie bar. If she wins this contest she will have enough money to do so. All we need to do is watch her youtube video once a day till friday. Here is her little speech...........Thanks Again!:face-icon-small-hap

Hi everyone! Because I believe deeply that the foods we eat are crucial to our health and healing I have opened up my own natural foods store on February 13, 2010. I live in a small Wyoming town where the only grocery store we have is the typical mainstream store with "empty" foods. I would also love to add a juice bar so I have entered a video contest with the US Chamber of Commerce in hopes to obtain some funds to help with the cost of remodel. Could you PLEASE view the video to help me? The top 25 videos make it to the judging round based on how the business impacts it's local community, local economy, and what it means to the owner. the link is http://www.youtube.com/user/Freeenterprise#p/c/73/n0_AbRhx828

Thank you and wish you all good health! Sincerely, Pam Hoff:)

Hey GREAT Vid. That looks like a winner to me. Made it to Alpine last year with the Young family from Boondockers. What a great place. Hope to criuse through there this summer on my bike.

4 laptops in my family will be watching once a day for ya and I'll hit my e-mail list with it.

I wonder if a plug on youth and early education of good food choices for kids in school and at home would be a good addition. Maybe your wife could do a foods day at school and include a clip if there's time before judging. Free enterprise also includes free marketing (Ronald McDonald, Joe Camel, etc.) but maybe your wife could point out her desires for an alternative type of education to help offset the corporate saturation marketing of products that are not always so healthy.

I have to admit, I am a redneck meat n gravy eater but our local health food markets have been key to creating new small farm and all natural businesses in a rural area where anything for a nickle is a good idea right now. The store not only features local products, but a couple times a year they make a tour map and let customers go tour the different suppliers places for a day with the whole lay out, tours, and samples. I made it as far as the wine stop and had to miss the goat cheese dam it. lol.

We're pullin for ya, good luck. EW
