The Street Team is almost six months old, but the members and leadership have a history that goes back to the American Idol Forums and other boards in 2007.

Read all about it in the Street Team section of the Forum.

Today the MD Street Team made the debut of what it is capable of at the Edy's Idol Ice Cream Tour stop in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Tons of flyers and postcards where handed out to people coming to see Melinda and she was greeted by a street team display of a banner, balloons, t-shirts, and the playing of some of her most popular Idol recordings. The amount of support and love for Melinda was off the charts! Melinda can be seen signing the street team's banner in the image above. Videos and photos from the event are coming soon! If you haven't already, then now is the perfect time to join the street team as it's just getting warmed up!

Alrighty, Street Teamers it's time to purchase your street team merchandise! We have a great design and a great printer who is selling the merchandise for very cheap prices! For all the details check out the post in the forum here.

Also, we are now holding a new project! If you purchase a street team t-shirt, take a picture of yourself while wearing it in public, and then send it to us we will give you 100 points! Check out all the project details here

Welcome to the Melinda Doolittle Street Team!

The goal of this team (formerly MelindaFan.Net) is to get the word out about Melinda through different projects; and maybe just because we want to. In conjunction with Melinda and her management team, we offer prizes to members who have enough points to earn them. You receive points through projects in which you do something to promote Melinda's career and, once you have finished the project, you report it and request points. Everything you will need can be found here: [url:2uw6zb9o]http://www.mdstreetteam.com/get_points.php[/url:2uw6zb9o]

There are a lot of useful things here, so please feel free to look around. We also have a Chat Room and a new forum (sorry, MelindaFan.Neters that means changing forums again) that came with the street team program that we are using. Speaking of that program, I would like to thank Nathan Bolender for setting it up for us! He has done an amazing job and has been so helpful along the way with our plethora of questions. Again, thank you!

We truly hope you will enjoy this new home for Melinda Doolittle fans, will sign up and take part in the projects that will award points toward awesome Melinda Doolittle prizes! If you have any questions regarding the street team please, feel free to drop Tyler Graves an email at streetteam@mdstreetteam.com and for questions regarding membership (account, points, etc.) then please email Norma Cabato at memberrelations@mdstreetteam.com.

Enjoy your stay and tell all your friends (which is currently a project)!
