We have businesses here who are wanting to get back together," she said. She said what started out as an idea to have a few businesses at a library turned into a mega event. "This was a wonderful community effort to bring all of these businesses here together. Now is not the time for party politics, now is the time to open up our economy, help struggling families get back in the game and get back to work," she said.
