Options Aplenty to #ShopSmall

Every year, it sort of feels like Small Business Saturday is akin to The Loop's very own World Series moment.

Or Super Bowl, if you will, for you football fans out there. Possibly a Championship or a World Cup...

We work all year to build our team, rallying your support to make sure they're strong contenders for the big game of the holiday season. This year's team, I gotta say, is the strongest we've ever had by far.

So before you head out to do your holiday shopping, be sure to visit loopincopley.com to study up on your options. We have plenty of small business members on the Destination, Maker Members, and Business pages, not to mention events on the Calendar to help you organize your own strategy and tackle your day of play.

You might even be able to work in the Ohio State/Michigan game if you plan it just right, and I call that a win for everyone.

Thankful to Welcome CFCS!

This week, we also welcome Copley-Fairlawn City Schools as our newest Loop Member, and know what I love most about that timing? It's the perfect example of why it's important to support your local businesses, and why The Loop was created in the first place.

It's community. It's families and friends. It's working together today and building on the past in order to prepare for the future.

Now that we have CFCS in the Loop family, we'll be able to keep you in The Loop about what they're up to and events that anyone can come out to enjoy.

For that, and for all of the support this community gives each other on a daily basis, I am #Thankful.

May you all have a peaceful and happy Thanksgiving in return! ❤
