This is sure to be a fantastic event! 🌺🌴 If you’re looking for something fun to do tonight, come out and support our WIN member, Gayle Cronin of Studio 23 Clayton NC for a fun-filled luau and a great evening of supporting local businesses!

We’re making it Facebook official.

Midtown businesses have already been working together, supporting one another, and creating some pretty special events here in Downtown Clayton. Now we have a page where we can share it all with you.

Please follow the new Midtown Clayton page and click Going on our upcoming Midtown Luau event.

On Friday, August 28 from 6–8 PM, we’re transforming Midtown into a tropical escape filled with local shopping, sweet treats, tropical drinks, music, games, and plenty of reasons to stay awhile.

We’ve built something special here—and we’re excited to share more of it with our community.

Follow the page. Click Going. Bring a friend.

One night. One block. One tropical escape.
Your mini vacation, right here at home.

We want to Bless the Boxes - but we need YOUR help picking the best time!

Our Saturday morning Blessing Box meetups haven’t been the easiest time for everyone to attend, so before we schedule the next one, we thought we’d ask.

The goal is simple: get more of us together, fill as many local Blessing Boxes as we can, and have a little fun doing some good in our community.

When would YOU be most likely to join us?

🔘 After our General Meeting - 3rd Thursday, 1–2 PM
🔘 Saturday morning
🔘 Weekday lunchtime
🔘 Weekday morning

Vote in the poll and help us choose! And if there’s another time that would work better, drop it in the comments.

A few women + one hour + a few bags of donations can make a pretty big difference. 💛

Happy Fourth of July, Clayton! 🇺🇸

Whether you are firing up the grill, heading out to watch the fireworks, or just enjoying a rare day off with your family, we hope you take a moment to step away from the business today.

To all the founders building their own version of freedom every single day: your hard work, grit, and independence do not go unnoticed. Enjoy the celebration, clear your mind, and let the emails wait until Monday.

What is your go-to local spot for fireworks tonight? Drop it below!
