Coming up on this week's edition of The Spark Weekly:

The Main Street Matters (MSM) program is designed to support local downtowns and surrounding neighborhoods with tools to create welcoming communities. This 20-million-dollar initiative will impact smaller communities like Hummelstown Borough.

Rick Siger, Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development, says this new initiative comes out of Governor Josh Shapiro’s budget for this year.

Also on the program:

Kindred Spirits Alcohol Free Bar in Chambersburg founded by Chuck Dutrow, a recovering alcoholic. When he quit drinking, he wanted to create a space for everyone to enjoy without alcohol.
