Super exciting news - Florence is a semi-finalist in the "Small Business Revolution on Main Street." From thousands of nominations for the town that will be featured in Small Business Revolution - Main Street Season 3, Florence is in the Top 10 towns that will continue on. They were visited by the Small Business Revolution team last week. This is the second of three exciting phases designed to help narrow the pool to the right towns that will be up for the public vote. In 2016, Deluxe introduced the "Small Business Revolution on Main Street." The Small Business Revolution on Main Street seeks out America's most inspiring small towns, and each season awards a winner with a $500,000 revitalization and featuring the transformation in an eight-episode series. Florence will hear in early February if they made it through to the next round of 5 towns for the public vote phase. You can follow their progress through the Small Business Revolution's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/smallbizrev/

....And show support by like and posting using the hashtag #MyFlorence. We are really hoping to rally all of Oregon behind them if they move to the next round!
