Mayor to Speak at Downtown Business Council Meeting July 31st

Mayor Sharon McShurley is expected to address the Muncie Downtown Business Council at the group's upcoming meeting on Thursday, July 31st, at 3pm in the Star Press building's conference room. This meeting is a departure from our usual meeting day, so please take note. The meeting was previously scheduled for July 23rd.


McShurley and new Heart of the City President Jim Borgmann are both expected to speak about current and ongoing plans for Downtown Muncie.

White River Landing will then host this month's DBC "Meet the Members Mixer," immediately following the meeting from 4:30 to 6:00pm.

Your attendance and involvement is strongly encouraged at this meeting; and the input of all downtown businesses, residents and supporters is very important at this time of uncertainty about Downtown Muncie.

Downtown Business Council meetings are an excellent opportunity to network with your downtown peers, keep informed of downtown happenings, and learn all about the Downtown Business Council and our continued efforts to market your business and our downtown neighborhood.

Members will be available to answer any questions about the Downtown Business Council, and membership applications will be available for anyone who wants to join. Please come by, bring a friend, and help take part in making Downtown Muncie the best place to be.

You don't have to be a DBC member to attend the meetings, but we encourage your involvement in the organization. Downtown Business Council is not limited to businesses and merchants. Residents, organizations and supporters of downtown in general are also welcomed to join DBC.

The Downtown Business Council typically meets the fourth Wednesday of every month at 3pm at the Star Press building.

The "Meet the Members" mixers are held very other month at varying locations. If your business would like to host a mixer, please email info@munciedowntown.com.
