Your chance to say thank you
Another great Homegrown Music Festival – it’s absolutely amazing to see the talent that we have in town.
Homegrown would not be possible without the efforts of a lot of people working throughout the year, behind the scenes, to make it happen. Paul Connolly, who has been festival director over the past two years has done a great job. Paul Lundgren, Adam Guggemos, and all of the volunteers who contributed deserve our thanks. And of course happy birthday and thanks to Starfire for giving life to the festival. Remember to frequent the venues who support original live music throughout the year.
If you had a good time this week, take a moment to write a note of thanks for those who made it possible.

Homegrown Banners
Hey kids, we know you’ve got ’em, and we want to see ’em. Turn your best Homegrown photos into PDD banners. We’ll try to rotate Homegrown-specific banners during the Homegrown Festival. Same rules apply, the image must be 960 pixels wide by 167 pixels high. Don’t stretch or squish the image to make it fit, that always looks bad. The Perfect Duluth Day logo will be added by PDD’s art department. Or, if you’d like, you can add it.
E-mail if you want the Photoshop template with the logo
E-mail your banners to banners@perfectduluthday.com, and we’ll start organizing them.
Also, a reminder, the banners go up on Flickr eventually. If anybody wants to add info about their shots in the Flickr comments, that would be cool.
