Enjoying Life Along The Drive...
Greetings!
College Park has been long known as a family-oriented hometown neighborhood. In recent years, while still maintaining its family friendly image, College Park has also added a layer of "cool." Featuring bungalow homes built in the early 1900's, lakes and parks, tree-lined brick streets, and a main street--Edgewater Drive--filled with unique shopping, excellent dining and many other small businesses, College Park is now turning into a popular place to dine and shop and most desirable place to live.
And, it is the place we in the College Park Partnership are so proud to call home.

Small Business
Saturday
November 26
Every year millions of Americans head to the malls and big box stores on the Friday after Thanksgiving. Black Friday, as it's called is the first "official" day of the Christmas shopping season, and the BIGGEST shopping day of the year.
Last year American Express began the Small Business Saturday campaign as a way to start promoting the idea that after spending a day of mad-dashing at the malls, consumers should continue their holiday shopping at the small, locally-owned businesses that truly drive our economy.
This campaign is perfect for Edgewater Drive and the College Park Partnership's Economic Development Committee is hoping that all the merchants and restaurants along the Drive will see the benefits of joining this movement.
Start by joining the movement on Facebook by clicking here
Please join our next Economic Development Committee Meeting:
Thursday, Sept 29, 8:30AM
Downtown Credo
706 W. Smith Street, 32804
Or, email your thoughts to the EDC Chairperson, Anne Rogers at Roarogers@cfl.rr.com
