Subject: Reminder: OMS Registration-only Scholarship Applications due Dec 16

Just a reminder that the applications for the registration-only scholarship for the National Main Street Center’s Main Street Now Conference is due on December 16. See below for additional info.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Main Street Now Conference will be in Dallas, TX, May 18-20, 2020. The Main Street Now Conference is a one-of-a-kind event, providing attendees with an opportunity to convene and learn about the innovative methods and practices that make the Main Street Approach™ one of the most powerful economic development tools in the nation. Whether you hail from an urban business district, small rural downtown, or some place in between, you will find real solutions to common problems and techniques to help position your Main Street Program and your community to thrive. There are a few scholarship opportunities to consider:
Oregon Main Street Registration-Only Scholarship: We have registration-only scholarships available through Oregon Main Street for OMS Network members. Applications are due on December  16 – see attached application form. First priority is for communities participating in the Main Street Track (Performing Main Street, Transforming Downtown, and Exploring Downtown). You must be a member of the National Main Street Center to apply for this scholarship and then register for the conference at the early-bird rate by February 3, 2020. Registration for the conference will open December 4, 2019.
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.
