Celebrate Your Mom Valpo!

Celebrate Your Mom Valpo!

Looking to do something special for your mom that takes just a few minutes of your time, does not cost a thing, and maybe even will win you or your mom cool prizes (if you are nice and you live in town, you really should give it to your mom :) , no matter how much you like ice cream or any of the other prizes) such as a dinner or lunch for two, some great photography, an massive ice cream creation, home repair or auto work, ValpoLife gear, or a whole bunch of other prizes?

We encourage everyone who has a mom, (and I am pretty sure that includes all of our readers and members), to send us a note, and a photo if you have one handy, about what you appreciate the most about your mom.

  • This can come from a 6 year old with a bit of help from Mom, to an 80 year old remembering those things about their mom that they miss so much, or any of us in between.  If you are a ValpoLife member already, you can use the easy Upload Photo link in the Members area to post your comments and upload a photo to us, or you could email us directly at photos@valpolife.com  If you are not already a member, sign up just takes a minute, and that gives you access to other member benefits like all the discount and promotional offers participating merchants offer each week, delivers the Best in Valpo weekly newsletter with the highlight stories, blogs, photos, and videos of the week, and makes you eligible for prizes given out every week by area merchants.
  • We’d love you to take a minute today and send us something in about your mom, your grandmother, your wife who is a great mom to your kids, or to your stepmom, your mother in law, or anyone who has served in some way as your mom and has touched your life in ways that only Mom’s can.  There is no cost, and we will be featuring all the submissions to the site so that you can show that special woman in your life a bit of appreciation online, and we can all share in some fun, touching, interesting, or short and sweet ways, that Valpo says Thanks Mom!
  • We have a list of businesses that are already going to be awarding prizes for what we pick as the best or most unique submissions, and we are encouraging all businesses and organizations in Valpo that would like to give out an award of any kind of size to give us a call at 219-707-5023 or email me at chris@valpolife.com with whatever they would like to provide.  Let’s all recognize the women who from the minute we were born, have been doing everything they can to look out for and care for us.


I encourage each of you, your kids, and your spouses or friends to get involved and share a sentence or two or a story if you’d like, about your moms.  Help us spread the word and encourage as many firms and people as you can to do that also.

Happy Mother’s Day Weekend Valpo, and I look forward to reading all the great pictures and stories online!
