To the editor:

Hats off to Councilman Joe Deets for supporting the “Pledge 1200 Initiative.”

It is a simple idea to support Bainbridge when the virus business is past us. (Learn more at www.pledge1200.org.)

“Pledge 1200 encourages Americans to spend [stimulus] money at small businesses [on Bainbridge], where it matters most, in order to safeguard our local businesses, their employees, and our communities.”
