Dear Laguna Business Owner,
Thank you. Thank you for being a huge part of what makes Laguna Beach unique, and for giving residents and visitors alike a reason to spend time in our city. Thank you for supporting our schools by donating to SchoolPower and placing advertisements with our local non-profits. Thank you for making sure that our children have a sponsor for their sports team, and for sponsoring and participating in our local events. Without you, we could not do it all. Many people do not realize how important your support is, big or small. Thank you for working tirelessly to launch your small business. Thank you for employing our community and providing the option to work close to home for so many. Thank you for contributing to our tax base. It is often overlooked, when we think about our fire department or police services, how much your taxes help with that. Thank you for meeting so many different needs right here in our town. We know there may be times it is tough to keep our long summer hours, adjust to the waxing and waning visitors, and you may wonder if you are doing the right thing. You are. We see how hard you work and we appreciate you. There are so many aspects of our town that you touch, and because many of them go under the radar, so many of us take for granted the importance of shopping local. We love to talk about it, but we don’t always take the time to think about what it would be like in Laguna if we lost our small businesses. Without you, small business owner, there would be a significant hole in our local economy. We need you and you need us and together we make a beautiful community. We can’t stress enough the importance of our mantra, Think Laguna First. Our businesses support the community, so we as the community need to stand up and support our businesses. We’re all in this together. |
