APRIL GUEST BLOG | BY: AARON EVERITT
On some small level, I have been involved in small business in Northern Colorado for as long as I can remember. My family has been in the real estate development business since the 1950s. We have watched as Fort Collins and other communities surrounding have grown significantly in the last 70 years. It’s been fun to watch, but also humbling to know that as our lives have been lived here, this amazing place has flourished - and whatever small part we’ve played has been a blessing to be a part of.
I can remember my granddad showing me from an early age how the cycle of small business is what made Northern Colorado as attractive and unique as it is. I stood with him in the Foothills Fashion Mall listening to him talk about the Mr. Neats Tuxedo shop, and how that idea had come from a student at Colorado State University, had been financed by a local bank, and was now a significant contributor to the mall tenancy and its success.
I suppose I have been uniquely aware of the synergy of business, academics, and geography in Fort Collins for as long as I’ve been paying attention.
