Help us out with the work of running a volunteer organization that is revitalizing the downtown area of Stayton using the Main Street America model. There are always many tasks that need to be done; events, online presence, Board members, or general project helper! If you are looking for a fun, interesting, committed group to work with to make a change locally- contact us, and let's talk about how your interests may help with our needs. Sign up for a short or long term project- no "forever" committment!
Revitalize Downtown Stayton (previously Friends of Old Town Stayton) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving downtown Stayton. Through a combination of events, financing, technical help, design improvements, and networking opportunities, we seek to make downtown a more enjoyable place to visit and an easier place to start and maintain a business.
Description
We use the Main Street Model, which is a four-point approach (Design, Promotion, Economic Vitality, and Organization) to create long lasting change in downtown. This national model is tried and true: some of the best small town downtowns in Oregon started with the Main Street approach. We hope to replicate others' success while keeping Stayton distinctive.
We love Downtown Stayton. The rich history, unique waterways, and wonderful businesses make Stayton a special place to live. We hope to build off of this distinctiveness to create a downtown that can invite the community together to eat, shop, and enjoy gathering.
