Three Ways to Celebrate Brookside’s Women-Owned Businesses This October. October is National Women’s Small Business Month, and the Brookside Shops are celebrating the many women-owned businesses that help make our neighborhood special. There are three easy ways to show your support this month: join us October 6 for a party celebrating Brookside’s women business owners, visit participating businesses October 24 for our Women-Owned Business Passport and a chance to win a $500+ Brookside Prize Pack, and throughout the month, shop, dine, visit and use services from the women-owned businesses that call Brookside home. Whether you’re discovering a new favorite, supporting a longtime neighborhood business or simply spreading the word, every visit helps celebrate the women entrepreneurs who are building businesses and strengthening our community.
