"We opened our video business in Sherwood several years ago.  We do professional video production, and we help consumers make video presentations out of pictures, music, and video, and get those old films and videos transferred to disk.   Our impression of Sherwood when we decided to locate our business here has held true; this is a family-oriented community that has a commitment to business and to livability.  We love the way Sherwood has improved the Old Town even during our residence here, and the tremendous participation in community events like Cruisin' Sherwood, the Robin Hood Festival, and the concerts in the park.  We've met many, many parents who are positively involved in public and private schools, as they come to our shop to create videos.  Sherwood is just a charming town ... 09/08/2008

Have you ever found yourself avoiding the doctor or dentist for one reason or another?  Me too. Recently I found myself with a couple problems that I needed to see the dentist about... Admittedly, I'd just kept putting it off! I'd actually attempted to go to the dentist recently, but that experience just confirmed my fears.  I chose the place because it was in my hometown and I liked their name.  Seemed like pretty good reasons at the time.  BIG mistake.  After my appointment began, I was out of the chair and on my way out the door less than 5 minutes into the procedure.  This was an experience headed in the wrong direction. After some time passed and with much hesitation, I picked up the phone and started calling around.  I came upon a warm, friendly and informative voice on the other ... 08/18/2008
