No One Puts Baby in a Corner

Title: No One Puts Baby in a Corner
Author: Amy Forsthoefel
The Idea:
When you’re at a party, in class, out with family or friends, at work, or even traveling outside of the city, take up bragging about how great it is to live in Dayton. It’s convenient to live here, easy to get around, cheap, has an incredible number of amenities for a city our size (arts, greenspace, rec trails, restaurants, music, etc…) – plus we are poised to do great things and are (Tech Town, Green Energy Studies, BRAC coming to WPAFB, the Dayton Create initiative and more).

Basically – make people who don’t live here wish they did, and make people who do live here think twice about criticizing our underdog but “can-do” city. If insults or negativity continues, defend your city as if it were your mother. Being positive is cool.
