Having already shared with you my history of engagement with small towns and downtowns, last Friday, I was honored to partner with Caitlyn Kasheta, Executive Director of Apopka’s new Main Street program, to facilitate a group of county, Lockhartians, and Apopkans meeting some of the “magnificent seven” responsible for Deland’s rebirth. I am grateful to those individuals attending representing the city, county, chamber, museum, and business community.
