Greetings!


Equinox energy will help us focus on the sweet things in life and on E7th Street. AND we're getting in gear to highlight Arcade starting in October. Get ready for Greatness! This mural at right stands at the intersection of these powerful corridors at CentroMex Supermercado on the corner of Arcade and E 7th. The challenge stands before us: How can you make love a verb today? Come figure it out with us on the East Side.


Looking for Free Technical Assistance? Give us some info here: TA Assistance Form. And check out the offerings from NDC coming up later this week. And Women Venture's business sessions begin this week too. Check out Small Business Essentials and Launched and Growing to see what they have in store.

Owner Henry Garnica, above, of CentroMex Supermercado put an ESABA sticker in the window to say "E7th Businesses in the spotlight here." Read More and find out how you can help.


And these businesses are helping too:


CrowBar, Eagles Club, and Yoerg Brewing Company are running deals if you bring in a receipt from our friends on E7th Street. See the details. Use the deals, buy a button on E7th and bring your receipt with you to get some goodies from these venues!
