I just wanted to make one for Alamosa to start. I think every county should have their own. Maybe if time allows later, I can do one for Colorado in general, unless someone else would like to take on that task.

Cynthia, Have you explored the differences between Fan Pages and Groups on FB? I first made my Adams County, OH page a fan page, but several people expressed the wish that it was a group, saying that a group was easier to find on FB. I ended up moving it over to a group since that was what the majority seemed to want. I like the Fan Page idea, more stats, options, and you can create a widget to embed on your website. If I had my druthers, I would have left it a Fan Page. What is your preference?

I started working on a group page before I read your email. I'll have to look into the fan page and see what options there are. Thanks for the info.
