The 2026 DSMC Annual Meeting

$15.00

Our Annual Meeting is coming up, and we hope you will join us. This is our most important meeting of the year and a chance for our merchant community to come together, reflect on the past year, and help shape the direction of Downtown Skokie.

We will review 2025 and 2026 events, discuss membership, explore opportunities for growth, and share updates on marketing and merchant support programs. We will also introduce the board election process for the first time and explain how members can get involved.

Tickets are $15 per person. Brunch and coffee are included with your registration. We are grateful to the merchants who donated funds and provisions to help offset these costs. Mayor Tennes and several state and local representatives plan to attend. Please watch for the invite and registration link.

Key topics include:
• Events for 2025
• Events for 2026
• Membership and engagement
• Downtown Skokie growth and strength
• Board positions and committees
• Marketing initiatives
• Merchant support programs

This year marks the start of our first board elections. If you are interested in serving, this meeting will explain the process and membership requirements.

This is the meeting we hope every merchant will make time for. Your voice and participation truly matter.
