About Shop in Seagoville
A local community website built to promote small businesses, celebrate local stories, and turn advertising dollars into real-world impact.
Local Roots. Local Stories. Local Impact.
Shop in Seagoville is owned by Marvin “Merv” Moore, Seagoville High School Class of 1984, and his Filipina wife, Lerma. The website was created to give local businesses, entrepreneurs, community groups, and hometown voices a place to be seen, supported, and promoted.
For Merv, local media is personal. In the early 1990s, he was a co-founder of The Seagoville Gazette, a weekly newspaper launched with Donald Beatty, SHS Class of 1988, and the late Joey Szychulski, SHS Class of 1986. Decades later, Shop in Seagoville continues that same hometown spirit in a modern digital format.
More Than a Directory
Shop in Seagoville is designed to be more than a list of businesses. It is a community platform for advertising, featured business stories, local events, alumni memories, fan contests, travel ideas, hometown trivia, and useful local information.
Every ad, listing, spotlight article, and promotion helps strengthen the local business community while also supporting a youth mission overseas.
Half of Advertising Revenue Supports Youth on Bohol Island
Shop in Seagoville donates 50% of all advertising revenue to the Bohol Coconuts Baseball and Softball Club, a youth program founded by Merv and Lerma Moore to provide new pathways for children from low-income families on Bohol Island in the Philippines.
Promoting Local Businesses
We help business owners, service providers, side hustlers, and entrepreneurs reach local customers through affordable advertising, featured listings, and business spotlight articles.
Celebrating Community
From Seagoville High School alumni features to trivia contests, local events, family fun ideas, and community stories, this site is built to keep hometown connections alive.
Supporting a Bigger Mission
Every advertising purchase does double duty. It promotes a business here at home while helping fund programs for children on Bohol Island.
Why the Bohol Coconuts Matter
The Bohol Coconuts Baseball and Softball Club was founded to help youth from low-income families escape the vicious cycle of poverty by giving them access to sports, structure, mentoring, academic encouragement, meals, and positive community support.
Merv and Lerma believe young people need more than talent. They need opportunity, guidance, discipline, confidence, and people who believe their future can be bigger than their circumstances.
