Greetings Area Business Members,
The following is a couple of emails I sent earlier today to clients/friends/family members I thought might be interested. I am planning to hold an open discussion/forum to talk about this issue and prepare for Monday night's council meeting. This discussion will be held on Sunday night at 7 p.m. at In Hot Water Coffee House and we will spill out to the deck for more room. Please feel free to extend this invitation to any party you think would be interested in a positive dialogue. This issue truly affects all of us that call Annandale a home, whether that home houses our business or our family. Please forward this on to anyone you think would be interested, and I apologize if I have already sent this to you. Also, as business owners with a vested interest in keeping yourselves afloat you may want to go to the ALCO website, www.ALCOstores.com and see what they are all about . While it's true they may have done well in communities of our size and brought in neighboring community business, the are isolated communities mostly, that do not have the resources available for them. Hello we have Buffalo 20 minutes East and St. Cloud 30 minutes North. We're talking Warroad here everyone. I have also included in this email, if you scroll down the page, a list of products that ALCO offers at their stores, which you can see hit a lot of us close to home. Thank you so much. I am fiercely proud of this community and will continue to care about its future.
My most sincere wishes, Amy Sparks
