The goal was to have volunteers and city staff visit over 200 businesses.

"It's a chance for us to informally talk with the owners, managers and employees in our business community and learn about the state of their business and find out what the City can do to assist in their continued success," Steve Art, the economic development manager for the City of Wheat Ridge, said. "We are always looking to bring new businesses into Wheat Ridge, but we also understand that it is important to support and help our current businesses thrive."

The volunteers asked questions like "What do you like about doing business in Wheat Ridge?" and "What can the City do to improve business?"
