Downtown Spotlight
Our downtown is an amazing place to eat, work, play and stay thanks to the dedicated community members that are leaving their mark. Now, it’s time to stand up and be recognized.
This week the spotlight is on Melanie Martin with Grounded For Life!
Check out her spotlight below!

What do you do for fun?
When she’s not dominating the Pickleball court, she’s crafting bread from scratch—literally! Grinding her own wheat, she takes homemade to a whole new level. Talk about a power combo of fitness and flavor!

What’s your favorite sliced bread sandwich?
Forget plain old bread; she’s all about that homemade Focaccia! Her top pick? A BLT with crispy bacon, fresh lettuce, and juicy tomatoes. Honestly, who wouldn’t want a bite of that?

What’s your go-to music genre?
Her daily jam? Christian music for those feel-good vibes. But when it’s time to channel some disco fever, she’s got ABBA and Mamma Mia on repeat! Dancing queen, indeed!

What’s your favorite customer quote?
