DIG Update, some changes.

DIG and The Downtown Times will be making some minor changes in the next month. DIG will now be moving to a monthly Newsletter (as opposed to a bi-monthly newsletter), and the name will change from "The DIG Newsletter," to "The Downtown Times". The Downtown Times blog will now become DIG's online version of the newsletter.


So what does this mean for The Downtown Times? We will continue to run blogs and articles, but we will also be adding some new features. First off, The Downtown Times (online) and the DIG website will now be accepting "Downtown DIGs". The Downtown DIG is where you can post your ideas, comments, or whatevers on your mind concerning downtown, and submit it to DIG. Each month, DIG and The Downtown Times will select a few "Downtown DIGs" to publish in that month's edition of The Downtown Times (newsletter).




Also, we will be more frequently giving DIG updates, and will each week have a "DIG Weekly Update," where we will update you on DIG happenings, as well as downtown happenings, and select one Downtown DIG to include.



We will also be running weekly polls and surveys, of which will be pubished with the DIG Weekly Update, and The Downtown Times Newsletter.

DIG Update

We've updated the website, as well as our purpose. Whats our "new purpose"?

To be more youth-friendly.

Because after all, it is your downtown, and the youth of Fort Wayne should get a say in the future of their downtown, but they hardly get the chance, because public presentations and meetings don't always appeal to the younger generation.

So thats exactly what DIG is trying to change.

Beginning in March, DIG will be hosting a series of events/discussions that will be youth and adult friendly, and we strongly urge youth to attend. And yes, there will be cookies.

Check out the DIG Website for more details-
