Advantage Valley will offer a FASTER WV Build Your Business Workshop in Clendenin, the heart of the Elk River Trail System. This workshop is designed to share resources and business opportunities for the region. Business coaches from the FASTER WV Entrepreneurship Program will be present to describe one on one business coaching, business basics classes, and access to capital for the start-up or growth of small businesses in the region. They will provide information to anyone wanting to start or expand a business.

Advantage Valley is offering this workshop to build upon the recreation and tourism investments that have centered around the establishment of the Elk River Trail System, which runs through portions of Kanawha, Clay, and Braxton Counties. Paralleling the Elk River, the Elk River Trail System provides recreation opportunities for anglers, boaters, cyclists, hikers, and equestrians living in or visiting the state. The Trail System is a potential game changer for the communities of Sutton, Gassaway, Clay, and Clendenin.

We hope you can join us for this event.
