FOUNDER’S NOTES

It was June 2012 andI had this idea. I had

been carrying the idea

around with me for some

time. Turning the idea

into a business was going

to take time and money

Time I had...money, not so much.

Talk about scared. When I received a

call from Dominick Longo (see front

cover) to discuss his new business and

becoming a Business Member, I knew I

had come full circle. CITD has

everything you need to start your new

business. And our Business Members

are here to help you! Sharing our busi-

ness knowledge and experiences with

each other, offering services from busi-

ness and personal insurance to signage

and advertising to acting as a sales staff

for each other. KNOW, LIKE & TRUST

it's here ~ in Chicagoans In The Desert.Hugs,

Chicagoan Mary

Show your former Chicagoan and

CITD community pride with our

magnetic necklaces. Available for

purchase via our website or at our

Chicks With Attitude Luncheons,

this novelty necklace comes in a

silver case and includes a black

leather-like cord necklace and 5 in-

terchangeable magnetic disks. Alsoavailable with a silver necklace.

Business Member Joe Signore and his wife

Karen recently sold La Piazza Sports Bar.

Talk about bitter sweet! The sweet part is

that Joe is currently looking for THE best spot

to open another sports bar (hint: we need one

in the Northwest area Joe). The bitter part was

that La Piazza was a "go to spot" for so many

former Chicagoans in the area. We wish Joe &

Karen much success and their new journey begins.
