The Arnold Lilac Park Homeowners Association (ALPHA) board of directors believes in shopping local. Therefore, the board unanimously agreed to support the Greater Arnold Business Association by becoming a member.
We recognize that the Arnold community has taken some shots on its economic chin over the last few years and if you’ve been in Arnold within the last 12 months, you’ve undoubtedly been witness to the numerous changes in the local business climate. Many long-time companies have closed their doors and others are working hard to keep theirs open.
The new leadership at GABA has done some great things to invigorate the local economy and generate enthusiasm in helping to keep businesses going in our community.
More than 60% of Lilac Park lot-owners live full time somewhere else. So when you live outside of Arnold full-time, what does “shopping local” mean? Simply put, when you’re planning to come to Arnold, if you can buy it here … do it. Your local patronage will help to keep the local economy growing. After all, if there is no business in Arnold … there really is no Arnold.
The ALPHA board of directors is proud that our homeowners association can be a part of this organization.
