People have been working hard to capitalize on as well as support the Stapleton community with different concepts, web sites, and ventures. In fact, a new site or business focused on Stapleton pops up almost weekly. A few will make it, but many will simply fade away.
Resident Scott Marshall may just have one that succeeds in the long term. Scott launched StapletonNaps.com on August 30th. The concept is to help Stapleton residents get some much needed rest in their time of need, but at someone else’s home. “I thought of the idea when I was coming back from the mountains from a guys trip,” says Scott. “I drove back early, and realized that if I went home, their was no way my wife and kids were going to give me the opportunity to sleep. So I called my friend Jay and asked him if I could use his basement for a couple hours. He said it wasn’t a problem, and I had a phenomenal nap. Everyone should get to experience that.”
The site is not just for men who drink to much when they are with their friends. “Sometimes, people need to get out of their environment so that they can relax,” says Scott. “It can be leaving your home office for a little while, or after breakfast on a weekend. It is hard to relax when there is so much crap to do right around you.”
The site allows people to post pictures of a napping area in their house in Stapleton and when it is available. People can then bid on the spot, low bids are $7 for a two hour time slot, or you can choose to “sleep there now” for $25. StapletonNaps collects $2 from every successful bid. Scott wants to make it very clear the site is for nappers only. “This is not for swingers or for sex. This is strictly a napping site.”
StapletonNaps.com hopes to rest easy, as other Stapleton sites continue to work to find their places in the community.
