Not only is our office busy getting ready for Showcase this
week, but we are also celebrating “Mom & Pop Business Day” on
Tuesday March 29th. The
definition of a “Mom & Pop Business” is a small, independent, family-owned
business. Unlike franchises and large corporations, which have multiple
operations in various locations, Mom and Pop Shops usually have a single
location. That being said, Barnesville is home to many of these businesses!
The vision of a small-town
Mom and Pop stores serving the community is one of Hollywood's favorites. We
not only get to see it on TV and in movies, but we get to live in the heart of
it. Knowing their customers so well, is a huge advantage for small town
businesses. Their customers are also reliable and return so frequently. They
are our friends, family and neighbors; and we build a special bond with them
each time the visit the store.
You can find many of these Mom and Pop
businesses at Showcase this Saturday, April 2nd at the Barnesville
High School from 10 am – 2 pm. We have over 40 different vendors who are all
ready to showcase what they have to offer. We also have a full entertainment
schedule, a fabulous food court and door prize drawings. The students from the
school have also been busy to get ready for the Student Art Show. Come out,
bring the family, and enjoy the day. There will be something for everyone!
