SMALL TOWN COMMUNITY BULLETIN BOARDS

A LOCAL CITIZEN CHECKS OUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN TOWN AT AN OUTDOOR BULLETIN BOARD

MUSICAL EVENTS ARE POPULAR FLYERS ON LOCAL BOARDS

A NICE NEAT ARRANGEMENT OF FLYERS ON THE LOCAL LIBRARY BULLETIN BOARD

FLYER ANNOUNCEMENT OF LOCAL SPORT TEAMS FORMING

HEALTH FOOD STORES SEEM TO CARRY MORE SPECIALIZED FLYER ANNOUNCEMENTS IN THE ALTERNATIVE LIFESTYLE

A GREAT PLACE TO FIND PEOPLE FOR ERRAND RUNNING, SMALL REPAIRS, DOG CARE, CHILD CARE AND OTHER PERSONAL SERVICES -- PLUS MORE -- THAT ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH LOCAL FOLKS

I have observed that folks like to read bulletin boards. For some it is like reading a story of what the town is all about. Small town boards are especially interesting as they usually only have locals putting up their flyers for coming events, services and other assorted needs and wants. Bulletin boards are a great community resource. Usually found in several places around town provided by local merchants and public institutions who provide them free for community use.

  1. It's true. One website I found that is cool for this sort of thing is smalltowneyes.com. It works great in my community. I think it's a new site so not every zipcode has comments. It's worth a look. http://smalltowneyes.com
