    When was the last time
    you "/Shopped Small/"?

*Join Dala Business Women in celebrating
& supporting small, locally owned business!*
*Saturday, November 28th is Small Business Saturday*.

Since 2010, Small Business Saturday has been celebrating locally owned 
small businesses.  Last year 88 million people "/shopped small/".
Dala Business Women is hosting a panel of small business owners to make 
us more aware of the contributions small businesses make in our 
communities all year long.  Join us in recognizing local small businesses.

Few rural areas have a local radio station and multiple newspapers. 
  Perhaps you have saved a few dollars buying from a national chain 
store.  But ask yourself these questions:

  * What did it cost to have that couch delivered?
  * How effective was the customer service when your dishwasher quit
    working.
  * How much gas and time did it take to drive to St. Cloud only to find
    that the screw you needed was too specialized for the chain store to
    stock?
  * Who employs your child in her first job?
  * And finally, who do you turn to when you want donations to support
    your local organization(s)?

What happens to communities that do not thrive with the gift of locally 
owned businesses?
Come and learn about the commitment small businesses make and spend your 
money locally all year long!

Our panel will be moderated by Laura Martin from KBEK.  Businesses 
represented will be:

  * Rick's Home Furnishings
  * Ace Hardware
  * The Leslie McCallum Salon Spa

*Date:  November 23rd*
*Time:  5:00 - 7:00 PM
  Location:  Freddie's Pine Room
  Cost:  $15.00 (includes Dinner and Program)
