Thousands of street-corner-box and strip mall churchgoers will gather with misfit artists to celebrate and drink, walk the cold streets of Rockford, drink, say hello to the homeless people, smoke some weed, score some coke, say a community prayer, use a few people for charity and volunteer work, praise whoever, smile, ride the ponies, wave to the new 4,000 lb bruce tree in front of PNC Bank – one of America’s most successful lending operations for fixing to fail mortgage loans in the last decade – and be positive!

The Rockford downtown is home to The Hornets Nest, a collection of important people who do nothing but hang out and talk in coffee shops and bars pretending to do some work on their iPads and laptops or talking to people they know about progress and change and art and figuring out new ways to rape the creative class in broad daylight while drinking coffee, beer and snacking.[2]

The continued efforts to transform Rockford, the city and its people, into a top 25 city by 2025 is ending 2014 and starting 2015 with a bang by dressing up the hornets nest (downtown Rockford and our city’s leaders, community prophets, white collar thieves and scumbags) with a tree.
