There are so many things happening in this city. Sometimes keeping up with the various sites to keep your calendar full can be quite daunting. Having information spread throughout the web leads some to believe that nothing happens here until the last minute. It just seems that way because Tacoma has a problem with getting information out about events early enough for people to plan on coming!
We're trying to counteract that pattern via this blog but have been as good in our duties as we'd like. Let's try to change that! Here are some exciting events happening over the next week. If you know of more that those in the building industry might be interested in, shoot me an e-mail at oleary_caroline@hotmail.com and I'll get them posted.
