[OMS_MANAGERS] [New post] Oregon’s historic Main Streets pivot for the holidays

Wed Nov 25 17:13:24 PST 2020

Hi Sheri

The City of Forest Grove in partnership with the City Club and Chamber of Commerce https://www.cityclubfg.com/holiday-in-the-grove are holding Holidays in the Grove in the downtown. This includes festive street light decorations, our Tree Lighting, a Storefront Decorating Contest, Gingerbread House Contest, Letters to Santa, and Official Forest Grove Ornament for sale, Kids to go art projects and other business specials and giveaways and Small Business Saturday . Unfortunately we had to cancel our Breakfast with Santa and the Holiday Light Parade.

Thanks,

Jeff

Downtown McMinnville

While the holiday season may look a little different this year, our Oregon Main Street<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.oregon.gov%2foprd%2fOH%2fPages%2fOMS.aspx&c=E,1,i4QM3zJU6d0etfKTr7W00maLJ8vCXqXpnlh1veIy4jDSRA6d_0qMz3mtTXDCKlaoD9hHABxvec3nlpknkRa8bP5rswLpbWA6czqH2TjGGK4,&typo=1> communities are finding ways to celebrate and create lasting memories while keeping your health and well-being at the forefront of their plans. Many community holiday traditions have been paused or reinvented, while others worked on created new activities. Some of the things happening across our broad Main Street Network include:
·       Lakeview Community Partnership<https://www.facebook.com/LakeviewCommunityPartnership/>’s Small Business Saturday activities include ornaments hidden throughout downtown businesses. If you find the ornament, you receive a big bucket of popcorn from the Alger Theater plus extra goodies provided by businesses. In addition, businesses are hosting a home-based business at their location to give them more visibility and consumers more opportunities.
·       Reedsport Main Street <https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=http%3a%2f%2fwww.reedsportmainstreet.com%2f&c=E,1,5ycZG6b6fr0K5EixiqMdNgypsPB8qIxMgRFK7d6BcHm-oGFlA8yG-jrYpmKLU_Xq2BWFzbjmsx6Xu39BlhIOKBnmG9gVYnBq0-IWe_TdDIazzMIWllLF0bFbzAUR&typo=1> worked with volunteers to decorate planters with holly and greens to create a more inviting presence and will move their traditional tree lighting as a virtual event that will be livestreamed on FaceBook<https://www.facebook.com/reedsportmainstreet/> (@reedsportmainstreet).

They encouraged business owners to create their own individual events which they are marketing over a two-week period and also supporting a window decorating contest to spread a little holiday cheer.
·       Historic Willamette<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=http%3a%2f%2fhistoricwillamette.com%2f&c=E,1,8bL4LnRnBnchZfq6mIoSkkXdFWpVNIDB88J8a7cQkMAKUUa5HJGdPo1MSSRdRPi6DyANvlaL1Be6LmjGTX_dGmVQ_hB7YqWEtNWeSLuFL6dHD5M6pWE,&typo=1> is continuing a decorated wreath contest to spread camaraderie among businesses and have also received approval to continue their holiday bazaar by spreading it out over multiple evenings rather than one and hosting as an outdoor vs indoor event.

·       Gold Beach Main Street<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.goldbeachmainstreet.org%2f&c=E,1,vQTurC1UCt9_VLWvLOB9Ez7dS3YsbWE1Dzy--GZsiYOD2iZ2IL7Nr4de8R1SN1oAnAbz6f_mnQDsOrnKLwJNAFaHM30Qdq34Q6onuhTWw6c2apk,&typo=1> is hosting a community lighting competition and will also be doing a drive-by Santa activity to ensure appropriate social distancing while sharing good will.

Regardless of whether a business is located in one of our Main Street districts, your continued support is essential. Last week, Gov. Kate Brown announced the launch of the “Give the Gift of Oregon” campaign, part of a comprehensive effort to support local businesses statewide in challenging times. “Oregon’s businesses are the backbone of our communities and our economy, and I am encouraging all Oregonians to shop locally this holiday season," Brown said. "Strengthening our economy starts here at home. Here’s a link to Travel Oregon’s website GivetheGiftofOregon <https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2ftraveloregon.com%2fthings-to-do%2fattractions%2fshopping%2fgive-the-gift-of-oregon%2f&c=E,1,REm1V6YIC3sYuPZSiMrs0DvInBH4kbgCborL24_CNShIZ9FtcdxCfASY1YTIkZfCJY1if5-F1XGm6IksxKiDXlsveLNborL2WXIRDZmqlQwWDfJhRA,,&typo=1> . Featured businesses and gift ideas are featured on its website. The campaign also highlights the Oregon Wine Board's The Giving Season<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.oregonwine.org%2fgiving-season%2f&c=E,1,q7FU2ZumFXzVuK269AVEkyzo4_ArIfbKFU4pgg3moN21UQUViKNJF-XQOR_mIOvHm592PyZEi-4hzKESXhZLUFzlaYDpow4V6RTSfjiNWp9b&typo=1> efforts, as well as the Built Oregon Marketplace<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.builtoregon.shop%2f&c=E,1,NJn60M9Mg3FnliZfMAmqIbJC6x9ml10FjGNJydJnxul_wgcwSxGyXuU3_tUTTTsD88jqpmiv3C1zjO1XYGj29BqNq0VFNzERHrYa4XtYH3GA473vKV6BaIQjlfQ5&typo=1>, an online platform that provides consumers with an opportunity to discover products from Oregon makers.

On a personal note, I am so grateful for all the efforts of our local main street organizations, local governments, and citizens who rallied to assist local businesses either by connecting businesses with resources and information, adapting marketing and events, relaxing rules and providing financial support, or patronizing businesses through curbside pick-ups, go-fund me campaigns, online shopping, or in-store visits when allowed. To everyone who stepped up to support businesses, you made a difference. While there have been a few downtown business closures, these have been fewer than anticipated. Each closure is a heartbreak, but I am grateful for those who have been able to forge forward. And, many of our districts are reporting new businesses opening. These folks give me hope.
