Small Business and Individual Sponsorships


We are in fundraising season, and YOU can help us make a difference. Some highlights of what last year's sponsorship dollars accomplished were $193,685 in Direct Financial Impact, 6 new business storefronts opened within Downtown over the last year, and an estimated attendance of over 25,000 visitors collectively to our 5 Hometown Markets and 3-Day Holiday Celebration.



As we continue to strive for excellence and expand our programming, we find ourselves presented with new opportunities to make an even greater difference. We have set ambitious goals for the coming year, and we believe that with increased support, we can not only meet but exceed our objectives.
