METCO Small Business Loans

METCO is the city’s small business lending program, to help small business owners grow or startup their business. METCO also has programs to assist commercial property owners in renovating the façade of their building, make the property handicap accessible and make it a more energy-efficient building. METCO has two major goals: (1) create jobs and (2) assist businesses in underserved areas to provide services that the community lacks and needs. METCO has been providing small business loans since the late 1970’s and relies primarily on repayments to supply the necessary funding for small business owners.

Community Night Bats Tickets Still Available

(Part 1- Metro Council Community Nights) The Bats will host a large community night and provide tickets, hot dogs and drinks to non-profit groups who would not be able to afford a Bats game under regular circumstances. - Tuesday, July 30.

(Part 2 – Metro Council Mondays) The Bats will host groups and small numbers of people doing the good of the community that might not fit into the category above. This includes vouchers (without hot dogs and drinks) distributed for use on ANY of these 2 designated nights: July 29, and August 26 (all Mondays). The benefit is an increase in the number of people involved and greater flexibility to obtain complimentary tickets – the groups are able to choose their own date within these 2 nights.

To request tickets for either program, please send an email to: Dustin Mercurio, Louisville Bats at dmercurio@batsbaseball.com.  Please include the following:  

Organization name, contact name, mailing address, email address, daytime phone number, number of tickets, and date requested –  If email is not available to you, call Dustin Mercurio at 614-4525.
