Thanks for posting the article.  While this is nice, after all the hoopla I'm glad I didn't plunk down any cash for the actual magazine. Wink
We sure do have us some cute kids, though!

Not that I'm not thrilled (I totally am) we're finally getting the positive recognition we've deserved, but if that's the entire write up....a lot was left out. I know for a fact they interviewed and took a great many photos...

Well its a cool blurb I think.  Its nice that it recognizes the creative hipsters specifically, as well as Mack Bisette a former neighborhood resident who owns SRG, the company responsible for the new construction.

It was hardly a ringing endorsement for SPAR though, that has to sting.

And for the love of pete, if you are going to plug a microblog, it would be nice if they had at least mentioned the entire url of Alleghretti's site.  People will never find it in a million years the way they listed it.

The photo is wonderful though!

How did you get any slant whatseoever, positive or negative, about SPAR from the brief blurb? The only groups mentioned were the Mommies club & SRG.

Also, you may be surprised that if you Google "the urban core" or even just "urban core" Tony's comes up as #1.

I wouldn't have thought so either.

You just kinda guessed, huh?

It would be great if we could get Southern Living to do a feature article on Springfield in the coming year. I hope Mayer Peyton reads this article, "Wilmer southend took off because of rail ".

I had spoken to the writer for months and the photographer right before and upon his arrival to Jacksonville. I know for a fact they spoke to many people and took photos of many great locations. They both loved Springfield and all it had to offer but they were blown away by the mommies group and ultimately the photo they chose reflected that. I called Teresa Fresonke shortly before the photographer came to town so she could coordinate a shoot. He called me right after he finished with them to say how wonderful Teresa had been and how great a group they were. He couldn't say enough good things about them. Springfield has a history of strong women and this newest group does us all proud. They are the future of Springfield and it looks bright to me. Kudos to you ladies and your adorable babies.
