The Latest Flash for July 20-26, 2009

Sorry about missing the flash last week, but I took my family on a vacation to Minnesota for the week. You could say we were gone fishing. Although I have not yet returned to Mira Mesa, I have been able to access a computer and will bring you up to date for this week.

Tuesday, July 21 will be a busy day starting with the Farmers Market located in front of the Mira Mesa High School from 3-7 p.m. After picking up some fresh organic produce, you can head over to Callahan’s for the Mira Mesa Chamber of Commerce meeting at 6:00 p.m. The meetings usually lasts until 7:30, so it is a great time to meet fellow business members and discuss how we all can benefit from joining forces and promote our businesses locally.

Councilmember Carl DeMaio will host his State of the District and Vision Speech on Reforming City Government Tuesday, July 21 from 7-8 p.m. It will be open to the public, and will be held at the Thurgood Marshall Middle School in Scripps Ranch. It is located at 9700 Avenue of Nations, San Diego, CA. 92131.

Moving forward a few days to Thursday, July 23 Carl DeMaio will host a Water Conservation “How To” workshop at Hourglass Park Field House from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. This event is also open to the public, and everyone is encouraged to attend. The Field House is located at 10440 Black Mountain Road, San Diego, CA. 92126.

Last but most importantly, the First Annual Mira Mesa Health and Wellness Fair will be taking place on Friday, July 24 from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. This free event will be held at the Country Inn and Suites and will feature free samples, demonstrations, and plenty of information on healthy, green living. This event is brought to you by Lifestyles INFOCUS and your Mira Mesa Chamber of Commerce, in addition to several local merchants for the benefit of all living in our community.

As an added incentive to our Mira Mesa Businesses, the company that brings in the most employees will win a Team Building Exercise valued at $1800.00 courtesy of Café Merlot. Bring in a copy of the flyer with your business card and you will automatically be entered into the drawing. We want this event to be a success, so please help us to spread the word and attend the Mira Mesa Health and Wellness Fair this Friday!
