Successful summit plans upcoming events
A summit was held last week. The Chamber, Merchants Group and BID all met to discuss upcoming Grove events.
Christmas was one of the main items on the agenda.
Something new: There will be a moving Coconut Grove Holiday Village, where local businesses can sponsor one of the houses. Think bed from the Bed Race, only it's a house or store, sort of Bahamian-style, on the base. We'll give more details when we have the plans and forms for you to download. There will be a specific way to build or have the houses built and there is an entry fee, etc. A big Christmas kick-off event is planned for Saturday, December 5 for the unveiling of the village, a Christmas tree, all the lights, etc.
Speaking of lights, the BID will be offering Christmas lights to businesses in the central business district, so that we can have a nice colorful lit up holiday season. A letter went out to all businesses and the Christmas committee will follow up with a walk-around next week to be sure everyone signs up and receives the lights.

Looking forward to getting lights and lighting up the entire Grove. Amazing how others have jumped over Thanksgiving and are into Xmas already. the artists are ready but the size has to be scaled for us to work on the project.
