       See America Tour   - AmericaTheBeautiful.comLaunches the See America Tour to Celebrate and Film the People and Places of America. Submit a free application promoting your city or community by May 17th. You might be picked to be a part of a nationwide DVD promoting our beautiful, patriotic country.

- “AmericaTheBeautiful.com is taking a film crew across the roads of America in search of powerful stories of patriotism and love of this great land. The focus is on the heartwarming communities, filled with great people, amazing photographic sites, and messages about the love of America and all it stands for. In this stressful world of the diminishing dollar value, rising gas prices, falling housing values, and escalating international threats, many are easily distracted by the day-to-day madness of the world. Americans often overlook the beauties of this great country and the freedoms that they enjoy.

The goal at AmericaTheBeautiful.com and the See America Tour is to focus on filming the people, and communities of America amidst America’s amazing landscapes. The videos will focus on America’s great people in small communities and big cities who, live, work and grow this diverse culture with freedom as the core ideal. The results will be a series of videos which show that patriotism is alive and well in America.”
