A Day to Celebrate
Formed from the combination of George Washington's (Feb 22) and Abraham Lincoln's (Feb 12) birthdays, Presidents Day has evolved into an all-inclusive holiday to honor all who have served our nation as President. To date, there have been 45 individuals who have served as President of our country. Elections are held every four years with the next election this year in 2020!
Social Media Workshop
Last week, the City of Aberdeen invited local businesses to a FREE Social Media Workshop. This workshop covered advanced social media tactics and strategies to increase traffic and optimize advertising strategies. Have questions about how you can improve your businesses presence online? Contact Main Street Coordinator Crystal Owens via email here.
Aberdeen City Hall will be closed Monday, February 17th in observance of Presidents Day. Normal operations will resume on Tuesday.
