Issue 114 - July 11, 2007

From Your Director ...

As I begin my second month as Executive Director of Jackson Downtown Development Corporation (JDDC), I aspire to bring a greater awareness of our organization to the community. Therefore, permit me the opportunity to tell you some specifics about JDDC.

Our organization seeks to improve all aspects of downtown by actively developing and implementing programs, projects and events that positively shape the downtown experience. JDDC is dedicated to promoting the entire downtown as a destination for retail, dining, business services, arts and culture and as a residential community.

Therefore, I intend to create a series of newsletters featuring downtown businesses, individuals and organizations. To inquire about being spotlighted, please contact JDDC at 427-7573 or email JDDC@CityofJackson.net.
