I want to help get Forbes attention, how do you recommend we connect with them? Can you post their contact info so other concerned citizens can set them straight that we may be having it tough, but we are from dead.
ReplyDeleteIf you are interested in getting the message across that Asheboro is a fun place to live and has some very unique assets, I suggest that you send a letter, not an email, to:
