Top Neighbors: The magic behind the mirrors
You will never have to pay to be listed as a top neighbor. Period. That important detail clarified, let's discuss how we arrive at two "top neighbors" for a given region:
Localism is a bustling collection of hyper-local communities, and the top neighbors should reflect those members who are most active. When ranking users in a given region, several factors are considered. To get your foot in the proverbial door, you need to have posted at least one "Localism" article or photo for the region.
The very best way to quickly rise to #1 is to post high-quality local content. Keeping a steady strem of incoming posts and photos will massively tilt the scales in your favor.
What doesn't count toward the top neighbor ranking? ActiveRain points and community sponsorships. The top neighbor spots will always go to the most active members in a region. We want to create a level playing field that encourages the growth of communities — talent and dedication are required to win the day.

parade in 2007. Three years later Hampton revived the tradition in 2010 with even more colorful floats and marchers than ever. Last years parade lasted about 1 1/2 hours, beginning south of the railroad bridge on Route 1 and ending at Center School on Winnacunnet Road, a distance of about two miles.
This years parade route was the same, but the entire show lasted almost 3 hours. Many fire companies, from as far away as Durham, were represented, along with law enforcement, marching bands, antique autos, floats and Winnacunnet High School athletes. The crowd thronging the sidewalks was estimated to be over 10,000 people.

who first cooked up the idea to have a fundraiser dinner at Wilbur's Family Dining for Heather. Wilbur Forbes, the owner, was inspired by the idea and offered to provide the food, a traditional spaghetti and meatball dinner with garlic toast, and donate all the proceeds from the dinner and the raffles to help Heather with her medical and living expenses. The cost of the dinner was $10 for adults and $5 for kids. 
The fundraiser for Heather was Wednesday September 21st from 3:30 - 7:30pm and everyone was welcome. People from all over the area began lining up outside the doors by 3pm and it was non-stop until the end and frequently standing room only. All the folks that Heather had touched with her kind service all these years came in to show their community support and caring. In all, Wilbur's Family Dining served 232 dinners, sold raffle tickets and raised $3,500 for Heather.
