Our Neighborhood Merchants

The objective of this group is to introduce residents of the SW Quadrant to the businesses in their community with the hope that if they are more aware of them they will patronize them more.  We also want to encourage business owners to adapt the the goods and services they offer to serve the needs of a broadened clientele.

How to use the group.

We hope that business owners and prospective customers will join Location19 and this group so that they can get to know one-another better.  Either through posts in discussions or as private Location19 mail messages, customers can communicate with the merchants to let them know what they would patronize their establishment for if the products or service were offered and to give constructive feedback on problems they may have encounter.

The exact structure of this group will probably evolve as we test things out.  For now I think, we should try starting a discussion in this group's Discussion Forum for each establishment.  That will allow the customers and merchant to have a public conversation using the "Reply" feature.  Mark Sweetland and I visited several stores with the objective of getting a feel for the establishments and the merchants.  We'll post that information as time allows.  I would encourage merchants to add to their story so the neighborhood gets to know them better.  If a locatgion19 member visits an establishment that we have not yet started a discussion for, you are encouraged to start a discussion yourself. 

Remember that anyone can read what gets posted.  For information exchanges that are best done privately you can use Send a Message  which you can find on any members page under their picture.  As discussions get added for various establishments, I will put together index pages to make locating information easy.  Those will appear to the right of this box.

General discussions can of course also be started to address issues that affect multiple establishments.

Tim and I had breakfast at the Brooks Landing Diner on Saturday morning.  The food was great!!!  I would certainly recommend it to anyone who was hungry as their portions are sizable.

Synthetic marijuana , legal bud, It's known as K2 or Spice, though may have other names, someone could ask the store if they sell it.

Comment by John Boutet on February 20, 2012 at 1:21pm

I didn't think to ask Margy and did not scrutinize the displays that closely.  The counters and shelves around the checkouts are so crammed with anything a customer might ask for that even things that are labeled are easy to overlook. 

Comment by Margy Meath on February 20, 2012 at 8:52am

John, Mark -

this is a great service you're providing for these business owners and neighbors. Can either of you comment as to whether any of these stores are selling the 'legal' marijuanna type stuff that was featured in the local news recently?? (I am not accurately remembering the name!).  It sounds like the drug dealers continue to be a major problem for these merchants ....
