Our Bend store just got a facelift!
This morning, four large windows on the front of our Bend location were “wrapped” with a printed, semi-translucent graphic. You can see what it looks like above. What do you think?
Thanks to CDS Publications in Medford for production, and to Dan Fair for installation.
Give our troops overseas a movie night – donate your DVDs at our Medford store
Give our troops a movie night.
Demonstrate your support for our brave men and women in uniform. Bring in any DVDs you can spare to Connecting Point’s Medford location. We’ve partnered with Charter Media, History, and other local businesses to collect DVDs from now through December to send to our troops abroad. Even children’s titles are welcome – they’ll be distributed to servicemen’s and servicewomen’s families, right here in the US.
Protecting our country can be alternately ultra-dangerous and ultra-boring. Downtime in remote parts of the world can be really tedious, and the entertainment options limited. That movie on DVD you donate can help make the time pass a little more enjoyably.
So we ask you to look around your home, see what DVDs you might be willing to donate – and the bring them in to the collection box here at the Medford store. We’d like to fill the box to bursting! Read more here.
Connecting Point a proud sponsor of ‘The Bank of the Cascades Bend Fall Festival 2013’ Oct. 4-6
As fall gracefully eases its way onto the scene and provides a time to harvest and give thanks, it’s the perfect time to enjoy a community gathering. The Bank of the Cascades Bend Fall Festival, presented by The Source Weekly brings a celebration of all things fall to downtown Bend.
Fall-themed activities will include lots of free live music (including local artists on the Connecting Point-sponsored Locals Only Stage), 125 artists and craftspeople, a Deschutes Brewery-sponsored homebrew competition, a pumpkin pie contest, and more. The weather is looking good, the musicians are tuning up, so bring the kids and celebrate the season!

Apple press event Tuesday, Sept. 10, 10am PDT: Follow it LIVE at these links
Apple will be hosting a press event Tuesday morning at its Cupertino campus. The invitations featured the above graphic, hinting at something…well, colorful? The rumor mills have been grinding away for weeks, with most knowledgeable sources believing the event will offer up new iPhone news.
For the record, Apple had this to say about it: __________________________.
It doesn’t look like the press event will be streamed live, although a recorded version may be posted later to Apple’s site. But fear not – a veritable army of mainstream and tech journalists will be in the audience, equipped with the heavy artillery of their trade: camera phones, laptops, pen and paper – and typically tenuous Wi-Fi and cellular networks.
Want to track the proceedings at 4 Infinite Loop Town Hall in real time? We recommend one or more (hurrah for multiple tabs and windows in your browser!) of these links:

Apple may buck recent trends and offer coverage of its own – possibly even live streaming video. You should be able to navigate to it via the “Apple Events” page of its website.
UPDATE 09.10.13 2:35PM: As expected, Apple has posted a video of the entire event to its site. You may view it here.
