Have you visited the FiND iT FREDERiCK website yet?
It looks like this…
Look familiar?
Well it should because it is the most fun site in town for getting to know the community without leaving your comfy house chair!
And, it’s going to be burned in your brain now if you live, work, or frequent downtown Frederick.
Why?
Because we’ve taken over the sides of a few good buses in the Frederick public transit system to make sure you don’t forget us!
Cool, right?!
And like every exciting accomplishment we make we’d like to celebrate it with you by offering you a gift!
I know, we’re too sweet.
See a bus with our happy little signage emblazoned across it while you’re going about your day?
Grab the number of that beautifully adorned bus, head over to our Facebook fan page and let us know you FOUND iT!
How easy is that?!
Facebook not the on-the-go social media app of your choice?
That’s cool.
Feel free to Tweet us, or even better Twitpic us a shot, to @finditfrederick.
WAT! watches our Twitter feed like a hawk so we’ll see it!
Multiple prizes up for grabs all summer long!*
