Ok so the businesses listed below are the ones we went to and how we were received by the people working or owners.
People's Care Pharmacy
Did not like Alex a whole lot, asked to get in touch with owner, refused at first then gave us business card and contact info.
Antonio's Barber Shop
Were very receptive to us, met the owner, seemed of highest interest, even customers were asking questions.
Female counter Part to Antonio's
Not as great reception, met owner, seemed minimally intrigued.
Pigeon Feed Supply Store
Met the owner, she was not ecstatic to see us and more wanted us out of her store, but listened and took the information, the other 4 men in the store were nice and polite and courteous. Lots of Birds inside!
Conroy Flower Shop
Owners were out on first try, when we returned a second time they were open, two very friendly ladies, seemed interested and happy to see us there.
Real Estate Office for community
Spoke to Lady behind glass panel, said she would pass the information to the owner but she wasn't around right at that moment. Upon entering to ladies from the community wished us luck if we wanted any improvement in our housing situation....
Dreams Inn (bar)
Spoke to the Bartender, owner was in Ocean City checking on house after Hurricane Sandy. Said she would pass along the information for us, generally very friendly.
Patapsco Mart
Convenience store, spoke to owner, listened to us, but not much feedback.
Convenience Market
They were not the owners, said they would pass along information, very quick visit, wanted to let their customers pay.

Are We There Yet?
Ok everybody, I know its getting late and I apologize. I sent the paper to Dr King and then forgot this. So here is my very brief update for the week: I went back down through the three main streets we have picked and attempted a compilation of all the businesses. Trying to be thorough but driving and writing isn't always the smarted of life decisions. Hopefully we have a basic script or template of a script ready for tomorrow so we can start promoting in a way. Ps we need those Tshirts ASAP I have people wanting them like NOW. Anyway so I spent like four hours a day on my own project trying to make sense of all the articles and time line everything so I've been a little frazzled, plus I have a huge midterm exam tomorrow in 200 and a presentation in 100 that I am trying to memorize right now and complete it without my belief making me cry.... So I am sorry there's truly not much to report this week but once we have a solid idea, I will have so much to say because I will be talking to businesses, and I am sure they will provide LOTS of info! :)
Ok everyone, Stay warm, don't get sick and I'll see you in a very sleepy state tomorrow!
Wish me Luck!
