Main Street News: February 8th

Busy, busy, busy! That seems to be the theme in the Main Street Office lately. Although we don’t have an event in the next few weeks, we are busy planning for the many events coming up in the months ahead.

 In the past, the annual Toast of the Town has been held in February. This event will still be happening, but in a different fashion at a different time! As some of you know, this is one of our big fundraisers for all of the beautification elements in the town. That means the upkeep of Friendship Park, the planters, hanging baskets on Front Street, and much more! We hope to make this event successful to continue these efforts, but that means we need your help! No this doesn’t mean any manual labor; we just want you to come out for a fun night on the town! Look for more information coming in the next few weeks!

We have also been planning for the 24^th annual Showcase event. This will be held April 2^nd from 10 am-2 pm at the Barnesville High School. Brochures went out last week, but if you have any interest in having a booth please call the Main Street Office at 354-2479!

Then before you know it, it will be time for the Spring Area-Wide Rummage Sales! This year they will be held May 6-7^th.  I know many of you have been already getting ready for this!

We have also changed our date for our Show ‘n Shine car cruise nights. We are now going to be meeting downtown on the 2^nd Thursday of each month May-September from 5 pm- 8 pm. Make sure you mark your calendars and spread the word! I will also be making up flyers. If you happen to be going out of town and willing to hang up a poster or pass out some flyers, please stop up in my office to pick some up!

We are excited and looking forward to all of these Main Street events. We hope to see everyone there!
