The Queen City Buzz is now legit...


Shameless plug here for this, The Queen City Buzz. The LLC papers came came in the mail last week, so this little blog of mine is now an official business (yikes!). If you or anyone you know has a business or event that could use a little extra promotion or advertising, please let me know. I have some advertising/feature story opportunities, and I would love to send you more information. Not to worry, though...The QCB will never "sell out" to advertisers. We are committed to our mission of "Finding fun for busy Charlotte families," and we will stick to that!! For more information about a business or event being featured on The Queen City Buzz, please email queencitybuzz@gmail.com.

Blessings,
The Buzz
