At RIGGS Company, we are all about our community. We have lived in Kirkwood, worked in Kirkwood, and raised families here. Owning a business isn’t always easy, but with the support of the City of Kirkwood, we have been able to thrive, grow and give back to the community.
Let us introduce you to the Downtown Kirkwood Special Business District. This group works to promote and enhance business in the downtown area in Kirkwood. The downtown retains the charm and character of the past (the Kirkwood Train Station has been running since 1853), while combining an abundance of shopping, entertainment and dining with a beautiful outdoor ambiance. Downtown Kirkwood is home to more than 100 specialty shops and restaurants. If you haven’t visited Kirkwood, be sure to make a trip this weekend! You might not want to leave.
15 years ago, Amie became a member of the Kirkwood Special Business District Advisory to help give back and support other businesses in the community. Obviously she enjoyed it so much that she never left the board! The Kirkwood SBD recently awarded Amie with the Longest Time Served on the Advisory Commission.
“I feel blessed to be a part of this group, a group of wonderful people who give back to our community,” said Amie Riggs. “I don’t know how it’s possible that I’ve served the longest when I just graduated high school a few years ago…”
Thank you to the Kirkwood Special Business District for this award and the opportunity to work with you for so many years. We could never picture ourselves in another city, this is and always will be our home.
