Community Corner

Shop Local-Shop Clayton

Today I launched the "Clayton Shoppers"-a group that aims to bring attention to the benefits of buying local.

Supporting local businesses is not a new idea but its benefits can be far reaching.  Buying locally obviously benefits the business itself, but it also helps all of us who live in Clayton.  Keeping our dollars in the community means more resources to help fund the services that we all count on.

This week the group visited Lola & Penelope’s, Lusso and Blue Moon.  Shown enjoying the event are Clayton retailers Carol Will (Lola &Penelope’s) and Cheri Chod (Blue Moon).
