Please Share (the need for) Ventura Love

By Visit Ventura

The best portion of a good man’s (woman’s) life: his (her) little nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.

— William Wordsworth

Now is when we really need to help each other.

Yes, there is finally hope on the horizon, and we should take that hope and run with it. But the honest facts remain hard. That bright horizon is still on the horizon. But here’s the thing about horizons. You can walk towards them, step by step. Day by day. Purchase by purchase. Takeout meal by takeout meal.

Thank you so much for continuing to support our local businesses. Farther back than we care to remember, we started a program called “Shop Ventura, Save Ventura, Love Ventura.” It’s pretty much what it says — and a reminder that the simple act of caring will save our local businesses. Venturans know how to care. We’ve supported each other in hard times before.  So please, share the reminder with your friends. Our businesses still need your help. And in Ventura, Supporting Local is truly supporting local. These are our friends and neighbors.

It never hurts to have a reminder.

And, in one thing, we don’t need a reminder.

This is a very special town that looks out for each other.
