[MainstreetTowns] Ribbon Cutting

[Karen Newkirk Main Street]

Newkirk has a large banner that says "Newkirk Main Street Welcomes You."  We go to the business with lots of our volunteers and take a photo - which then appears in the paper along with a short press release about the business.  We have an 8X10 of the photo made, buy an inexpensive frame to put the picture in and give it to the business.  They always display the photo - usually behind their cash register and we get awesome coverage from this.  We started this when our Chamber went belly up for a period of time - and we have just kept doing it.  I love Ron's ideas - great stuff to implement -no matter the size of the community.

I would like feedback on this too...we are not the keepers of the "big scissors" in Ada either. Because that's already being done, we don't really have something that's Our Thing.

Do any of you do something other than a ribbon cutting for your new members?  The chamber does ribbon cuttings and I need to do something other than that.  I would appreciate any ideas you might be willing to share.

Thanks,
