It’s a down economy, but local businesses are soldiering on. If you missed it, you can check out our story about how Salem retailers are getting creative to deal with the conditions here, and a story about a new local-economy research center at Salem State College here. (These stories are all available in the Business section of Wicked Local Salem.) Readers might also want to check this week’s Business Buzz, which is in the Business section. There are listings of workshops geared toward nonprofits, the creative economy and more, as well as a small-business event with U.S. Rep. John Tierney.)

If you live or work in Salem, you probably fall under the purview of an upcoming event. Three different neighborhood groups will convene May 12 for a visit with state Rep. John Keenan. The focus is the state budget and how it will affect Salem. The event falls on a Tuesday, and there are major issues afoot in the state and city, so it’s definitely worth checking out. However, the event is the same night as the Mack Park neighborhood group’s next meeting, so if you live near the park you may want to weigh your options before deciding which to attend. Details on both meetings are listed at the top of this week’s News Calendar, which you can visit here.

Ben & Jerry’s on the cheap

OK, this one isn’t a freebie but it’s pretty close. Ben & Jerry’s is offering each customer a scoop for $1 on Tues., March 24 from noon to 9 p.m. There’s a catch, but it’s a good one. You have to bring in a non-perishable food item to be donated to St. Joseph’s Food Pantry in Salem. They’re calling it ECONEomic Relief. It’s a good cause, and a good treat, so stop by B & J’s at 60 Washington St. in Salem next week.

Spring is finally on its way and Rita’s Italian Ice is celebrating by treating customers to a free 10-ounce cup. Anyone who stops by on Friday, March 20 from noon to 10 p.m. gets one. Apparently “Spring FREEver” is a 17-year tradition for the Rita’s franchise, although Salemites might not know about it since Rita’s is fairly new to town. They’re located on the pedestrian mall at 188 Essex St., so stop by to take advantage of the giveaway.
