Small businesses on trend to save downtown Columbia 'To the Nines' effort & how small businesses across America are saving small towns Three opportunities in the coming ten days show that Columbia is all-business in the month of August. From open-late hours in the 'To the Nines' downtown event, to a report on the Retail Academy, to a message about supporting local entrepreneurs at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon, Tuesday, August 14, 2018, 11:45amCT at the Chamber of Commerce lunch meeting, Roberta Cranmer Dining Center, 430 Helen Flatt Drive, Columbia. - it's all about small business, all open to the public, and filled with possibilities. Click on headline for complete story with photo(s) By Linda Waggener Downtown Columbia, with its multitude of start-up and expanding small businesses, is right on trend nationally according to the article at this link about how small businesses across America are saving downtowns. Many of these businesses will be staying open until 9pmCT this coming Friday night, August 10, 2018, in an effort to attract shoppers who need convenient hours to see what is being developed locally. Their theme is 'To the Nines.' The evening before this event, at 6pmCT Thursday, August 9, 2018, in Lindsey's Cranmer Dining Center, 430 Helen Flatt Drive, Columbia, KY, the Columbia/Adair Economic Development Authority (EDA) will share marketing information and ideas learned at the Retail Academy earier this year to help local entrapreneurs.

As a City Council member, I continuosly study possibilities that can add jobs in Columbia, and research ideas to improve historic downtown.
