Volunteers from the Waldo Area Business Association, Brookside Business Association, and the Southtown Council will be hitting the streets in April and May to visit with area businesses and organizations. This annual tour provides the opportunity for volunteers to meet and greet fellow business owners and managers, explain and promote area marketing opportunities and projects, while also learning about their issues/concerns. The Southtown Blitz takes place on April 9 through 11, the Waldo Walk Around occurs May 7 through 9, and Brookside follows the next week. If you are interested in “walking the streets” or want to schedule a visit, contact the Southtown Planning Center, 816-523-5553.
