It is always surprising to me when I read comments about how the closing of a "local" store is the doom of Santa Barbara....somehow government is to blame or the big chains.... Hey, times change, enterprises come and go - remember Ott's or the White house? - Consumer trends change and I believe it is up to business owners to adapt. Understanding the wants and needs of consumers, delivering excellent service and marketing make good business sense - The Blue Bee stores (started here in SB) are a great example of business owners finding a niche and really working it!

What a well deserved recognition for the Independent. I'm sure the News Press will be reporting on this - but oh wait- to access their website - you have to subscribe to their "newspaper" or pay a fee!
Congrats to Campbell, Kettmann and Webby!
