Burg Life is about carving out a niche in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania — a place both passed over and vitally important. We live here and work here. While we grumble at times about the state of affairs around town, ultimately, we stay here because we know that this is a great place to be.
But it could be better…
Burg Life is a way to give voice to the vision of where Harrisburg will be tomorrow. It is about seeing opportunities all around us, even in our limitations. It is the reclaiming of “OUR” in “our city”, and owning the “PUBLIC” in “public space”, “public works”, and “public safety”. And it is recognizing that we all hold an obligation to future generations to leave them with a quality place to call home.
We are not in this alone.
Burg Life extends beyond a few bloggers, just as it extends beyond the city line. Harrisburg lies at the center of a metropolitan area with 640,000 residents, and we’re in this together. We regularly cross municipal lines as we go about life. Harrisburg is interdependent with its neighbors, and creative solutions to what ails us will recognize that.
We’re having fun!
Burg Life knows that this our one shot at life, and we’re enjoying ourselves. Our nights are as busy as our days, and there are too many things to do. Burg Life isn’t looking for a scene. It recognizes that we are the scene, a bunch of like-minded people seeking out that communal experience and a place to be.
We are Burg Life.
