The Guide to Davis, a book to be published during the fall of 2015, will reflect the voices, opinions and cultural experiences of a great number of Davisites, including, we hope, you! We’ve set up this form to make it easier for you to participate. You could write something right in the form, or you could compose more leisurely in your favorite word processor, and then cut and paste.
After you enter your name and email, below, please submit responses to one or more of the following prompts, making sure to include the relevant number with your response. For the “Your Message” text box, contribute as little or as much as you like. You are also invited to skip any of the numbered prompts that are not relevant to you, to respond to multiple numbered prompts, or to submit responses to multiple prompts on separate occasions. Submitted entries that are accepted for publication may be edited for clarity and length.
- What do you love about the City of Davis? Please be as precise as possible, and support your statement with as much specific evidence as you can. Anecdotes, descriptions, and stories are welcome.
- If you would like to contribute your thoughts to one or more sections of the book that are listed in the table of contents, which section(s) would you choose, and why?
- If you own or work at a business that you think should be included in a guide to Davis culture, please tell us why.

- What other notable or eloquent Davisites do you think we should invite to participate in this project?
- A 50-word or shorter bio, if you would like to be included as a contributor to this book. Each contributor of an entry or substantive submission to the book will receive an e-copy of the first edition of The Guide to Davis.
- What other information would you like to submit? If you wish, this is where you may submit a full review of a topic, location, event, business, natural wonder, or remarkable person in Davis. We invite you to make clear and assertive claims, and to support those claims with sufficient specific evidence.
We thank you for your participation!
