Yesterday, 225 years ago or on May 19th, 1785, the City of Saint John, NB, became the 1st Incorporated City in North America!!!

There are many activities going on today and for the rest of this year here in Saint John, NB...

Here's a link to all of the activities in the Saint John area: http://www.saintjohn225.com/

As a local Realtor here, I wanted to give back to the community, so for the rest of the year, I'll be taking $225 off anyone who uses me as their Buying Agent or Selling Agent!

This should help all the local people who feel a little tight at the end of the buying or selling process...

Here's my ad beginning this weekend or May 22nd in the Telegraph Journal, that will run for the rest of the year!

ENJOY all of the celebrations!!!

Ann-Marie,

The first incorporated city is quite an historical precedent. I never knew that.

Hi Brian,

Yep!!! It was actually a Jeopardy question, which I heard in the U.S. before moving to Saint John, NB... ;>))

Ann-Marie - Saint John, New Brunswick's 225 th anniversary of its incorporation is very fitting for the city with the Reversing Rapids.

Hi Marc,

I've got a photo of the Reversing Falls in my previous blog's comment section... Please check it out! We definitely have a different history here, and much potential for the future!!! ;>))

Ann-Marie, I would never have guessed that St. John was North America's first incorporated city.

It's good to see innovative marketing that also underscores your loyalty to the community. Have a great weekend.

Sorry for the delay, been crazy busy!!!

Hi Malcolm, "Incorporated" is the key word there... Hope Ontario is doing well this year??? ;>))

Hi Cherise, Since I'm an American who moved here 6 years ago, I'm still working on connecting with these very friendly people here... ;>))

Hi Ty, Saint John has changed a lot in the past years, it's beginning to realize that job & cultural diversity is good for the city!!! It's got plenty of potential and I think it's beginning to head in the right direction... ;>))

Ann-Marie - 225 for 225 different, unique and innovative marketing is often one of the keys to standing out amongst the competition

Hi Kathy,

As a "newcomer" (from the U.S.) I have to create an innovative market niche, since I'm competing among all the local Realtors here. Having my Masters degree probably helps me think of alternatives... ;>))
