LIngerie Football League asks Auer Agency to put their apparel together

That's right with all the news in Charlotte these past two days, we thought you would like to know that the LFL contacted us on Tuesday seeking our services to do the team gear.

I'm not kidding, I'm totally serious about this.

We are currently working out the details with the LFL, but right now they are looking for tops, bottoms and sexy knee highs to wear for their upcoming mini-camps/games for 5 teams.

We can't tell all, you know us girls don't kiss and tell, but we will keep you posted as we draw nearer to sealing the deal.

For more info about the league go to: http://www.lflus.com/index1.html

For more info on us go to www.aueragency.com

e-Testimonial

I would like to give an e-Testimonial for Metro GreenScape who began my landscape design installation this week.

The process started a couple months ago with a review of my (then) current landscape. The design architect came out, surveyed and took notes. Then, with a week, a full design was presented, including a mounted color to-scale diagram and a booklet with all the plants proposed for the property, pictures, their care instructions and information. -- Very Professional!

When the "install team" came, they did so on time, and with obvious respect for me and my yard and home. They have planted more than a dozen new shrubs/trees and transplanted some that I had previously. Before they left they cleaned up the sidewalks, driveway and patio, and re-seeded and covered any bare spots in the lawn. And probably the most impressive part to me was how when they dug the beds, they roto-tilled and added new soil conditioner and new soil to the heavy clay dirt. This will ensure that what was planted will thrive, and it is something that could easily have been neglected--but wasn't.


Metro GreenScape has been a pleasure to work with from the start and I look forward to having my landscape completed and maintained.



I highly recommend Metro GreenScape for all of your Charlotte-area Outdoor Living needs.
