1. Cash mobs - cool article about how community members are supporting local
businesses...and it is happening in Oregon as well. La Grande has had 3
"cash mobs" descend on local businesses!

ness-near-you/

*Thank you to Cara Kaser for sharing this idea.

 

2. Free Volunteer sign-up tool.

I just learned about this free volunteer sign up tool and I thought some of
you might also find it useful, especially for larger events with lots of
volunteers. This will (hopefully) make our Street Fair volunteer
coordinator's job much easier!

 Suggested by Sara Wittenberg, Executive Director, Alberta Main Street

 

3. Community Preservation Act - interesting concept - read on:
