How does one "bring" a Childrens Film Festival to one's city?
I am interested in at least floating the idea of a Film Festival for Children in the Denver/Boulder, Co area. How would I go about this? I haven't the foggiest...it's just an exciting idea at this stage. Thanks you, Melinda Hall Submitted By: Melinda Hall on 4/15/2009 5:42:57 PM

BayFestival.com is For Sale
To whom it may concern I noticed that you own the domain BAICFF.com and I therefore thought you might like to know that I am proactively seeking a buyer for the domain name BayFestival.com. You may find that by owning BayFestival.com and pointing type-in traffic to your existing site that you would capture valuable, pre-qualified leads. During harsh economic times such as these targeted, low budget advertising is more important then ever. Owning a high quality domain such as this is one of, if not the best ways to attract targeted customers to your business. This could well be the difference that will help you stand out from the crowd amongst a sea of competition. It is also ideal for marketing campaigns as it is very easy to remember while displaying a sense of professionalism and encouraging more people to visit the domain. BayFestival.com is a powerful domain name that needs no explanation of spelling or pronunciation. Owning such a domain name will tell your competitor on 3/24/2009 5:22:55 AM

Children's Film Festival

The Bay Area International Children's Film Festival provides an opportunity for families to come together to celebrate the art, culture and diversity that are fundamental to the San Francisco East Bay. It is increasingly important to offer constructive educational experiences for our children that enable them to positively share their similarities and differences in a celebratory atmosphere.

Families will have the opportunity to attend three separate screenings as well as a conversation with the filmmakers.
