    Summer 2017 WAYNE BUSINESS ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Hello WBA, I hope you enjoyed your 4th! We are halfway through 2017 and the WBA Board is working on a bunch of great events to get people into Wayne, the "Original Towne Center." Our 25th Annual Radnor Fall Festival is right around the corner and we are looking for sponsors. WAYNE I want to thank SILA and Foote Orthodontics on stepping up to the plate early as gold sponsors. If you are interested, there is more information on page 2 and 5 of this newsletter. Read it – we OPEN don't just cut and paste stock articles here! Our ad is due at the end of July for the September issue of Main Line Today and for Chester County Life. Next up is the Wayne Tree Lighting... but I am not going to talk about it because it's July...this is just subliminal. Late #WAYNEOPENLATE Speaking of Chester County Life, they are working with the WBA in writing solid editorials about our town. Huge spreads in the magazine with great pictures! Main Line Today will be writing up the Radnor Fall Festival this year, which should be a great spread as well. "Wayne Open Late?" What's that, you ask? Gloria Clawson, owner of Kids N' Kribs and new WBA Board Member, has started the conversation on Wayne businesses staying "Open Late" on Thursdays. This will be Wayne's version of First Fridays, Taco Tuesdays, etc...you get my drift. Gloria has talked to merchants in the WBOD if they would commit to staying open until 8pm every Thursday.
