Vista Santa Cruz is a rave site. In other words, it is to acknowledge and celebrate the good that people are doing to make it (what it is is up to you) better here. It's about what is and not about what should be. I believe the majority of people here are here because to each this is a special place. And I believe that we can each in our own way make it more special. So, I encourage modest boasting.

It is also an experiment. I welcome suggestions on how to make it better.

In what I expect will be a short while I will incorporate a voting scheme so that we can not only post what is being done but also encourage more of it. I also plan to link to a LinkedIn group. And, of course, I will create a tracking system for the lending library "message in a bottle".

VISTA stands for:
V - Vision: what is your vision for making it better.
I - Impact: why do you think this will have a significant impact.
S - Strategy: what is / has been your strategy for implementation.
T - Target: what is the target for your effort.
A - Act: what actions have you taken so far and are you committed to taking going forward.
