<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) is seeking public comment on proposed updates to the Oregon Main Street Network rule to include Oregon Main Street.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Downtowns are traditionally the heart of a community – the social, economic, and civic center. Many of our downtowns in Oregon are “diamonds in the rough" that
need a little polishing to sparkle once again. Others are vibrant and want to maintain their competitive advantage. Oregon Main Street helps communities wherever they are in their downtown revitalization efforts. They provide support to organizations who are
ready to roll-up their sleeves; develop a vision for how they want their downtown to look, feel, and function; and then attract the people and financial resources to bring about the change they want to see happen.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Oregon Main Street provides training and technical assistance to organizations participating in the Oregon Main Street Network depending on their tier participation
level and allows all Network organizations access to the Oregon Main Street Revitalization Grant which funds building improvement projects that spur economic development (available once per biennium in odd years). The proposed rule will include parameters
for participation in the Oregon Main Street Network, describe how resources will be provided to participating organizations, and establish primary structure for management of and participation in the Oregon Main Street Network. Currently, no OARs exist for
the program and the program is linked to a significant statutorily created grant program.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Climate change is affecting museums, their communities, and all of humanity. As trusted institutions, museums can help avert worst-case outcomes through skillful
use of information and thoughtful planning. How can museum professionals stay updated on climate risk and action, reduce their climate impact, and help their communities adapt?<br>
<br>
Join CFM director Elizabeth Merritt for Future Chats—a new AAM series on trends, news, and the implications for our sector. For the first installment of the series on
<b>August 14, at 3:00 PM ET</b>, she will chat with Marcy Rockman, an expert in climate change and cultural heritage with US-national and international experience in climate change science, cultural heritage management, and policy. <br>
<br>
After the chat, join discussion groups to dive into a recent climate story, exchange thoughts about its potential impact on museums, and share any experiences you have with climate extremes in your community, operations, or programs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
