Fernley, NV – August 17, 2006 – Flowers By Mario plans to give away thousands of free flowers for FTD® GOOD NEIGHBOR DAY® Residents of Fernley will have the unique opportunity to meet each other and develop new friendships when Flowers by Mario and the City of Fernley celebrate the annual FTD® Good Neighbor Day® event on Wednesday, September 6, 2006. Beginning at 7:00 AM, Flowers By Mario at 190 West Main Street will give away 10,000 flowers in bunches of a dozen, absolutely FREE to anyone who visits the shop, while supplies last. There is one catch, however. Mario Flores, the owner of Flowers by Mario hopes the goodwill is exactly that – “catching”. Anyone who picks up a dozen free flowers will be asked to promise to keep one of the flowers for themselves and give the others away to 11 different people – spreading goodwill and friendship in the community. “We hope that the people of Fernley will be able to get acquainted with new people or will renew an old friendship during FTD Good Neighbor Day,” states Mario. “We hope to help create a friendlier, more caring and compassionate world, starting right here in Fernley.” Please join Flowers By Mario, Fernley Mayor David Stix, Jr., Fernley City Council members, Senator Maurice Washington, and your neighbors, to celebrate what makes Fernley such a great place to live – Our Neighbors!
