Joe Houston is a Local Business owner, who's very familiar with Putting your Money Where Your House Is.

He notes that doing so creates a lot of positive feedback.

"I think you only need to look at places like the boards of the local rink to see how many small businesses and operators in our community are dedicated to supporting sports, leisure, recreation, and other volunteer aspects of our community in a pretty serious way."

And he's also aware of what happens to businesses without the community's support.

"When we look at the disappearance of small businesses in communities, and we see them shutting down, one of the secondary effects of that is less willingness to try from up-and-coming entrepreneurs."

Houston notes that small business ownership is no easy feat, but is well fostered by Dauphin.

"We see some amazing business openings in Dauphin every year and it continues to happen because Dauphin continues to come out in support. We don't guarantee that will keep happening without that continued support"

Putting your Money Where your house is keeps businesses around, and provides the many shops and services we see in Dauphin, and across The Parkland.
