Ryan Winkle Finds A New Mission In Life: Video Producer

Just to make sure you can't keep a good man down for too long, Community innovator/activist Ryan Winkle, who ordinarily does the extraordinary,  is getting back into the public-eye in his own way. . . and no doubt is looking happy, positive and up-beat on a new career tangent:
Winkle has produced his own video that's already been viewed and watched by more than 350 - it sure beats the YouTube viewer stats for those keeping track of those ever un-popular Mesa City Council public sessions and meetings where we never care to know what's going on except for paparazzi-headline grabbing Kangaroo Court-public meetings where no members of the public were permitted to speak.
The Winkle-produced video shows the pop-event success that 2nd Friday Night Out has had for years as a once-a-month night-time attraction to fill the usual empty streets and sidewalks - they come, they walk around, they may shop and eat/drink for a few hours and then they go!



Every 2nd Friday Night Out - Downtown Mesa, Arizona is a fun adventure with creative themes. Its fun thinking about how Main St has and hasn't changed over the years. I often laugh at the funny way our downtown crew met and how things came about. I always have fun and see a lot of people I know. I feel great seeing such a large crowd walking up and down Main and knowing that it was all driven by a small groundswell of us who showed up and tried.
  • Thanks to all that have put themselves out there.
  • Thanks to:
  • All the small businesses that extended their hours and hosted events and artists.
  • All the residents and neighbors that collaborated on projects and gave your time.
  • All those who believed in our grass roots placemaking efforts that is breathing life into Mesa's Downtown.
  • Thanks to Suzanne Woodford for continually organizing this event on your her own time. 
Here's a teaser for the readers of this blog
