From the
Towne Lake
Business Association
It's that time of year - school's out, vacations
are now a reality, kids in camps and colleges or careers await graduating
high school seniors. Wherever this summer takes you and your family, the
Towne Lake Business Association (TLBA) wishes everyone a happy, safe and
fun summer.
As part of our commitment to the young people
in our community, the TLBA recently awarded our annual Entrepreneurial
Scholarships. Lauren Clark of Woodstock High School and Lauren Naples
of Etowah High School each received $1,000 scholarships. Congratulations
to both very deserving young ladies, and we wish them good luck with their
continued education and success!
Summer is also a time for business owners
to assess their mid-year goals and accomplishments. It's a time to reflect
on the first half of the year and plan for the remainder. It's also a
great time to get involved with other business owners and what better
way to do this than to join the TLBA. While the kids may be out of school,
businesses don't take breaks. The TLBA can provide a great avenue through
which businesses can attract new customers and help develop solutions
to the many challenges that face business owners every day.
Through our monthly Lunch 'N' Learn Workshops,
both members and guests are exposed to many new ideas on topics ranging
from marketing and advertising to taxes and insurance. "Business Health
Insurance" was the topic of our May workshop. We want to thank Stephen
Ott of Ott & Company for leading the workshop.
To learn more about the TLBA or to become
a member, please visit www.tlba.org or come to one of our workshops on
the third Tuesday of each month from 12:30 - 2 p.m.
As always, we thank you for supporting our
local businesses, and thus, our Towne Lake area community, and for "Keeping
Towne Lake Dollars in Cherokee."
Until next month,
Wayne Kosbe, President
