FREE WHITEWATER

Brief Remarks on Downtown Whitewater, Inc.

I promised a post on Downtown Whitewater, Inc.’s search for a new, full-time leader.  They’ve a committee that drafted a job description.  Of that committee, there are truly impressive members : smart, talented people.

How their search will turn out I do not know – one hopes for a good outcome.

I do know, however, that Whitewater’s success doesn’t depend principally on secondary organizations, but on successful, direct, daily transactions between Whitewater’s businesses and her consumers.

We have seen the rise of new restaurants & merchants in town (in all parts of it), and the continuing success of others, that have compelling offerings.  These businesses offer much through the hard work of their owners.  Their success is the consequence of their labors.

I’ll now return an expression someone many years ago delivered to me:

One should not confuse the map for the terrain.  

I’ll not confuse business organizations for free markets of private businesses and consumers.

My best wishes to all for many prosperous years ahead.
