from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m.

Robert Johnson, Economic Development Specialist for the Texas Main Street Program of Texas Historical Commission will discuss the challenges facing Mom and Pop Businesses who are suddenly competing with the large commercial chain store.

There is no charge for local businesses, but registration is required to plan light refreshments and proper accommodations.
