Some good news for the In Ballard Merchants Association.  IBMA tells us they’ve won a grant from the Seattle Economic Development Office.  That funding will go toward the group’s light pole banner campaign around Ballard’s shopping core.  IBMA also wants to remind merchants that the deadline to sign up for the Tuesdays in Ballard campaign is May 31.  Tuesdays in Ballard is a summer-long campaign designed to entice people from both outside of Ballard and within the neighborhood to come shop, eat and play here.
