Howard County Executive Calvin Ball has introduced the Savage Mill Bucks program this week, aiming to invigorate local businesses and enhance tourism in Historic Savage. This initiative is designed to provide financial support to small enterprises in the area, encouraging residents and visitors alike to shop locally.

The Savage Mill Bucks program offers residents the opportunity to purchase vouchers that can be redeemed at participating businesses within the historic district. This not only stimulates economic activity but also fosters a sense of community by promoting local shopping experiences.

In addition to supporting businesses, the program is expected to draw more visitors to the area during the summer months. Officials anticipate that the initiative will not only help sustain existing businesses but also attract new ones, further enriching the cultural and economic landscape of Historic Savage. The program reflects a commitment to nurturing small businesses while enhancing the overall appeal of the community as a vibrant tourist destination.
