Parking is a huge issue, I have been told by of my people that they have to go someware else because parking is such a hassle and please don't talk about the waste of time public parking that is on average a block away. The local chamber is a joke I was a member for over two years and guess what I went to all the lunchins and meetings and never once did they talk about improving business, it was a big joke and when I asked when we would talk about thease thing the president said this is not the time for business everyone just wants to have a nice lunch and have a good time. The current head of the coc has the rebutation of being seen drunk all over town (time for him to go) and I know it is all here say right well I used to think that until I ran into him stumbaling across the street one night and a fellow business owner from crystal lake said "look at the drunk bastard" I was embaressed to say no thats the head of the chamber! The shops on the square are all closed on sunday when people are off work and are closed before people get off of work at night, I guess retail works different in woodstock! The city historical sociaty should leave the business owners alone and worrie about real issue's like working with owners not working against owners to make woodstock better. Farmers market this is the best takes up parking space about 30%, takes away buisness from shops on the sqaure, has little to do with farm products, business's are not even from the area (looks like money talks)it hurts period except those who get the money think about it. The idiot kids that should not be alowed to hang out on the square all night, thease are not the kids your mom and dad wanted you to hang out with and they make many people feel unsafe to walk around the sqaure at night (have them look like vampires). I have saved my best for last the stage left cafe, it is amazing how much money went into that project. I would also like to note all the opera house employees that do all the work. The square and business is hurting in woodstock so lets spend money and resorces on opening a cafe that helps the people and business's of woodstock in no way, using our money to start a business to compete against duh! I would like to say I thing the W.O.H is one of the best things about woodstock but that was a bad move and we paid for it. So back to angelos well they are one of the few business's that have been around for a long time and is one of the only places to get somthing good to eat late at night that isn't fast food crap. I hear but can't confirm that, they give a ton of money to the chamber and other local orgs to help premote activitys. I have heard the manager John S at the W.O.H say how much he has helped out for events and gatherings. I am also to understand that he has givin many other buisness owners help and business in town. This place and its garbage is not the problem but spending all this effort on it is, Gus address some real issue's and remmber the sqeeky wheel gets the oil but sometimes it gets replaced!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9095750659102120237.post-12268770732351268732007-12-06T09:59:00.000-06:002007-12-06T09:59:00.000-06:00He is actually a she.He is actually a she.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9095750659102120237.post-23797370048203439012007-12-05T19:14:00.000-06:002007-12-05T19:14:00.000-06:00A solution to all of the problems that plague Gus'...A solution to all of the problems that plague Gus' life-move to Naperville.

With all the hoop-de-lah about Woodstock's historic Square, we ought to be able to create something that would draw people to the Square in the evening. If the stores were open, that would be a start. But they won't stay open when there is no one on the streets or in them. Perhaps a community-interest group should visit Naperville and count the types of stores that are downtown; interview the merchants; talk to the Chamber of Commerce (in Naperville, I mean); and bring home some ideas to create vitality on the Woodstock Square, not just talk.Gushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09036550825708569102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9095750659102120237.post-25044401194258572582007-12-03T14:27:00.000-06:002007-12-03T14:27:00.000-06:00I knew if I said there were only 2 vacant stores t...I knew if I said there were only 2 vacant stores that you would go count them.
