GAMSA + KW + OMSC = A-O-K Day!

What a great day!  Congratulations to everyone in Kendall Whittier and Tulsa who created a GAMSA winner.  This is incredible.  The competition is amazing.  In the old days, only 5 towns received this designation.  Now, they only name 3 winners.  This is a really, really big deal for everyone.

Kendall Whittier is such a success story.  I loved the comments.

Behind every successful GAMSA winner is a supportive, dedicated statewide staff.  Buffy, Jeremy, Tamara, Kelli, Anna, and Josh….congratulations to all of you who work so hard to keep the Oklahoma Main Street Center engaged.

As with everything, state government has evolved from those early years of Oklahoma Main Street.  Through all the changes at all levels of leadership, you continue to have successes that demonstrate how effective—and important—local Main Street programs are.

This is still the best program in the state!  Kendall Whittier just proved it.

Ron
