“I was born and raised in Saline and I want our downtown to grow and thrive. I like working at the Cobblestone Rose and enjoy being able to eat and shop at the other establishments. Since I still live within the city limits, there is easy access to the downtown area.” Sue Trachet

Prosperous New Year!from all of us at
Why Downtown Matters...We all know where our Downtowns are, but do we know what they are and why they matter?
Downtown is the economic engine, the big stage, the core of the community. Our Downtown tells us who we are and who we were, and how the past has shaped us. We learn about our past, explore our culture, and discover our identity in our Downtown. It is the place of shared memories where people still come together to live, to build on a dream, to work, to make more memories, and to be entertained.
In the coming year, and throughout this magazine, you’ll hear why Downtown Matters from members of our community.
Share your reason, get involved and get invested in 2014!

Remember how good it felt when you started with chiropractic care and your
symptoms seemed to fade into a memory? We would like to thank you for putting your health in our hands by devoting our time and services to help the ones you love have that
same sense of relief through a “Gift of Health.”
By passing on these “Gifts of Health” certificates, you have the opportunity to, very literally, change someone’s life for the better. They will receive a consultation, examination and any necessary X-Rays completely free of charge. As you gather with friends and family this holiday season, give the “Gift of Health”

“I chose to practice in Downtown Saline because of the close knit community that this town has. It allows us the opportunity to get to know and grow with our patients. We love helping our young families as well as our patients who have been coming to Dr. Deo for many years. It is also great to have the office located Downtown with all the fun events that happen throughout the year – the Christmas Parade, Oktoberfest, and the Scarecrow Building Contest. It seems like there is always something happening right here in our very own community; we don’t have to go anywhere else to have a great time.” Dr. Brian Hayes, Saline Optometry
