Good Things Coming to Saint Paul

I’m off to Philadelphia for the annual Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE) conference. I’ll be connecting with chamber leaders from across the country and bringing home fresh ideas to continue improving how we deliver our best to you!
 
Before I go, I’ll be spending time downtown – and I hope you will too! There’s a lot to celebrate in Saint Paul right now: 

• The MN Yacht Club Festival is lighting up Harriet Island, July 18-20, with incredible music and energy.
• Dining options are growing: 

• • Lowertown favorite Dark Horse has reopened under new ownership. In a Facebook last month, the new owners (also owners of Can Can Wonderland and St. Paul Brewing) introduced themselves. 
  • Treat yourself to the new Palace Pub, next door to the Palace Theatre downtown, opened in June. 
  • 6ix Mears is open in the old Barrio space in Lowertown. 

 
Hoping you’re making this a great summer!
 
See you in the trenches,
B
