The Great American Main Street Award is the highest recognition the National Main Street Center gives out each year. Nominees are selected from a large pool of accredited main street communities across the country. This is the second year in a row we have a nominee from Oregon. Winners will be announced at the Main Street Now Conference in Seattle, March 25-27, 2019.
