A SMALL TOWN NEVER FORGETS!! In this episode, Neil and Will sit down with Deb Brown and Becky McCray, co-founders of Save Your Town!  With a focus on smaller communities, they believe small towns can be saved by their own people using their own resources.  As small town experts, their organization combats community challenges and specializes in low or no cost solutions, ones that will work in even the tiniest of towns.  Hear them talk about the recently released "Survey of Rural Challenges: and find out what were some of the most surprising things they learned during the process.  Take a listen and discover some best practices that small towns throughout the country (and in Appalachia) are deploying to improve their communities - who knows, you may even have the inclination to "Save Your Town!" You might even hear Neil's thoughts on wearing white and  the question of why we don't work on Labor Day.  Also, don't forget the #AppBiz of the week: Tionesta Market Village and Matt's Happy Cow BBQ!
