Take 5: Annapolis Business Association President Sean O'Neill

Patch would like to introduce you to someone new from Annapolis with a round of five questions, helping to shed a little light on our community.

Meet Sean O'Neill, president of the Annapolis Business Association. Patch: What does your role as president of the Annapolis Business Association entail? O'Neill: I work with the city's business owners to help shape legislation, promote events such as Midnight Madness, and raise funds for the city's holiday decorations. Patch: What is one of the challenges facing downtown that has surprised you? O'Neill: The lack of cohesiveness. Some of the business owners are loners that march to the beat of their own drum. They want to tackle the world alone. They still have not learned that if you are part of an organization and provide valuable input and energy, you can accomplish so much more. But an upside is that more and more are joining …
