SAF has sent out a Zoomerang survey on the 2007 Local Marketing Kit -- let us know what you think of the kit, and help us plan for next year's by responding.

The kit already has received a stamp of approval from one California florist. The kit's posters were mounted and displayed on the wall at Blooms and Bears Florist (pictured left) in Irvine, just days after owner LuAnn Schwab and husband Carl received them.
