[OMS_MANAGERS] FW: 2019 Main Street Now Conference registration is now open!

Mon Nov 19 09:14:55 PST 2018

Just a reminder Main Street America’s national Main Street Now Conference will be in Seattle on March 25-27. This is the first time since 2007 that the conference has been on the west coast. We have registration-only scholarships available through Oregon Main Street for OMS Network members – see attached application. First priority is for communities participating in the Main Street Track (Performing Main Street, Transforming Downtown, and Exploring Downtown).

In addition, The Ford Family Foundation has TA grants that allow use of the funds for staff members to attend a training or conference. In this instance, the TA application would fall under Community Economic Development. Here’s a link to the application:
