A funny thing happened today. I was out and about and I saw a blog post from All Things Richmond printed, and posted on a bulletin board. How cool is that? Well, cool and kind of ironic. Me and my friend mused at how Ben Franklin would have loved weblogging. The ultimate self-published newspaper. Anyway, it made me think perhaps I should print the Dogwood Dell Schedule on the Near West End too, in case anyone is looking for some great free entertainment. Thanks again, to All Things Richmond!

Also, before you check out the schedule, keep in mind the City of Richmond is looking for volunteers to help run the Dogwood Dell outdoor concert series. No experience or specific time commitment is necessary.  An introductory meeting will be held at 7 p.m. on June 16 at the Dogwood Dell Amphitheatre.  For more information, call Taylor Williams at 646-1437.
