Happy Groundhog Day 2010!
As we ramp up for our first annual DIG360 Retail (& Friends) Groundhog Day Celebration in Vancouver, Canada, I'd like to wish one and all a very Happy Ground Hog Day! (click for greeting).
Wiarton Willie, Punxsutawny Phil, and Shubenacadie Sam were in agreement: there is no doubt there will be six more weeks of winter in Eastern Canada and the Northeastern US. Apparently, Willie mumbled some other information, but no one on the scene spoke groundhog. Stay tuned.
Kudos to the mayor of South Bruce Peninsula supporting our mission to make Feb. 2nd a national Canadian Holiday: http://www.torontosun.com/news/canada/2010/02/02/12708081.html
We are still waiting to see a retailer and shopping mall movement to embrace this celebration with store promotions.
