**Calling all artists and Golden Plains peeps**


We really need your help.
This next ArtsTrail is going to be so awesome, it's a head-spin.
 
The benefits to our Golden Plains community, local artists and local traders are immense:
 
-promotion of our outstanding region-
-sharing of our secret artists' heaven environment-
-showing off our talents, healthy living and community spirit-
 
It's a big job getting ready, but it's worth every bit, and we need you to make it
the success we enjoy every time the ArtsTrail happens.
