Choose Michigan!

Apparently, the State of Michigan is extending its "Pure Michigan" campaign (targeted at tourists) to a "Pure Michigan Living" campaig aimed at attracting people to live here. Indeed, there is a contest to tell the world why YOU choose to live in Michigan (http://www.puremichiganliving.com/ChooseMichigan/) - I encourage you all to think, write, and submit. Apparently, the state wants 1,000 stories between now and Monday - I am guessing to post on the website. Every story will help...and please make it convincing! We want people to come to live in the Great Lakes State.

Maybe you can get ideas by looking at this site: http://generationymichigan.org/

Michigan Radio collected stories last fall about why young people are staying or leaving.
