Yes, that's right. We are having an in-person meeting on December 3rd, from 4-7pm. Naturally, COViD rules apply and we will be able to socially distance ourselves. Meet us at Guncotton Coffee & Gallery in Downtown Hopewell for food, drink, and a good ol' fashioned "How have you been? It's been ages!" The emphasis is on supporting local small businesses and spreading some Holiday Cheer at the end of this trying year. For more information, sponsorship, and registration, click the button.

One could argue that there's never been a more crucial time to #ShopSmall. Operating a small business during a tumultuous time in a land of giants isn't easy. In a community like ours, small businesses are more than just businesses. There's a face and a name behind every one of them. That's why this holiday season, and in fact all year round, we're encouraging folks to think local and #ShopSmall. Small business Saturday is coming up on November 28th. Don't forget about the little guys, y'all! Want some small business swag for your business? Contact us and we'll get some to you.

We're thrilled to announce the second installment of our brand new Hopewell Bluegrass Jamboree in partnership with Cultureworks RVA, the Hopewell Downtown Partnership, and Saucy's BBQ in Hopewell. Our first event was a great success and we are looking forward to another one on November 21st with the Schuyler Bluegrass Band! You can find the recording of the first event with County Seat Band at the link below.
