  1.  When was the last time you felt rested? The last 16 months have been a grueling race with us all trying to stay one step ahead of the needs of our small businesses, internal teams, and community. Check out this TED talk about the 7 Types of Rest<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FZGNN4EPJzGk&data=04%7C01%7CJMcCoy%40preservewa.org%7Cf22f5e0b94864569e9a208d9380217ba%7C7cf212237659429d97bf5a2e4cf63f98%7C0%7C0%7C637602403940931713%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=xmVqZhZJk89AnKUI5XqwNW6a2BloalWCJB9AFvG63Ak%3D&reserved=0> or read the article: Read Here<https://ideas.ted.com/the-7-types-of-rest-that-every-person-needs/>

  1.  Reminder: Excellence on Main Awards due tomorrow evening at 11:59 PM. If you have volunteers working on your nomination (awesome!), please be sure to have them read the award nomination information and the online instructions (see attached and info below). Despite having your volunteers complete the nomination, we only want one point of contact from each organization so either your executive director, your board chair, or other designee should be listed. If you haven't used the online grants system before, there are a couple required questions that might confuse you:

  *   For site acreage, just enter '1'.
  *   Latitude/Longitude - Please use the 'find lat/long button' to use the map to select this location in the online system. Here is a video that shows how to do this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydu-txLhgl8

1.      Reminder: OMS "Excellence on Main" Awards Now Open - Due July 13, 2021
We have refreshed the awards from the name to categories to the submission process. What hasn't changed is that the award nominations are an opportunity for YOU to honor the people, the projects, and the activities that are outstanding achievements in your community. Attached is info about the awards, the award categories, nomination questions, and more.
Eligible Applicants: The Excellence on Main Awards is open to all organizations participating in the "Main Street Track" of the Oregon Main Street Network, including Performing Main Street, Transforming Downtown, and Exploring Downtown levels.
Project Time Frame: If applicable, all projects must have been completed between July 2020 and June 2021.
Registration for the Online Application System: We are using our grants system for nominations this year To access the application, register at www.oprdgrants.org<http://www.oprdgrants.org>. If you already have an account (e.g., you previously applied for an Oregon Main Street Revitalization grant or Diamonds in the Rough), then request through Kuri.Gill at oregon.gov<mailto:Kuri.Gill at oregon.gov> or 503-986-0685 to add Excellence on Main Awards option to your account. Log in using your email address and your password. See online registration instructions for detailed directions to use the online grant system. https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/OH/Pages/Grants.aspx#one
Application Submission: Once you have a login, you will be able to submit your application. You can enter information, save, log out, log back in, enter more, etc. as many times as you would like before you submit. Instructions for OPRD: Grants Online visit our website. https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/OH/Pages/Grants.aspx

?  Important Update: One issue was discovered. Two categories were missed in the list of categories: Standout Volunteer  and Outstanding Special Project. Since people have started working on nominations...way to go!...We can't change the application.

So here is the work around. For both of these categories, in the Nomination Category drop down select Executive Manager (or Main Street Manager) of the Year. This will avoid any confusion because we know the managers.

In the Description Category - Enter 'Standout Volunteer' or 'Outstanding Special Project' At the very beginning of the Description section.

Our apologies for complicating a transition to a new process. Change is hard, this year is hardPlease, please, please don't let it stop you from nominating!

Contact Kuri Gill at 503-383-6787 or kuri.gill at oregon.gov<mailto:kuri.gill at oregon.gov> for assistance.
