Updates from the Eastside BID:

Christmas Caravan
We’re partnering with Professor Pinkerton, the Downer Avenue BID, and some generous sponsors to bring the East Side neighborhood some extra cheer this holiday season! Professor Pinkterton and his Irrelevant Orchestra have been traveling around Milwaukee playing music on their handcrafted Christmas Caravan, and this Friday they’re headed to our neighborhood! Find the details, help spread the word, and stay updated here.

Resident Engagement Survey
The BID has been working on its Resident Engagement Program as we work to foster stronger relationships between our residents and businesses. Our goal is to support our local businesses by finding ways to increase engagement with residents, and to benefit residents by creating programs, services, and/or an even more neighborly environment within the District. In order to collect data to accomplish this, we’ve created the Resident Engagement Survey. We’re asking current residents within and near the district for their thoughtful feedback! The survey should take around 10-12 minutes and the deadline for submissions is Friday, December 18th.

In addition, I would be remiss if I didn’t promote our Scroll & Stroll landing page, in partnership with Support Local MKE, that lists several East Side business specials this holiday season. Check them out here.
