Inspired by California is a 3 month long project from May 18th through August 18th that will take us to 50 Cities and towns throughout California to gather stories about those things that inspire us about this great state that we live in.  We will be stopping at Bookshops, Galleries, Campuses and more.  I thought it was time to go on a road trip to talk to people about the amazing resources that we have available to all of us and that if we all chip in our future is brighter than we think.  California has inspired the rest of the world through its technology, environmental stewardship, lifestyle, music, innovation and spirit. We want to hear from you so that we can share those stories with others. We are looking for stories in these and other areas: Environment, The Land, People, History, Commerce, Technology, Lifestyle, Arts, Science, Agriculture, Health. Let us know your thoughts and inspire others.

 

 

We will be leaving Santa Cruz on May 18th just after the Tour of California reaches the finish line at the Boardwalk in Santa Cruz. We will be traveling the State in a counterclockwise direction, stopping at 50 Cities and Towns in California. We will be asking Californians to share their stories on wide variety of subjects that relate to what inspires them about this great State. As we gather the stories we will post them on Facebook for all of you to see and read. Tell us your story.

It’s easy to complain about what is wrong, it is harder to see the tremendous advantages that we have, even now many parts of the rest of the world still don’t have.  We will be talking to people about their stories about California and what inspires them about this state.  Send us your stories and we will post them on our site so that others can share your ideas.
