For Kendall Whittier, be sure to remind people that they are on Historic Route 66. And be sure to promote that incredible "GAMSA" designation.

This is amazing that we have so many.) • 2020 Kendall-Whittier District (Tulsa) • 2006 El Reno • 2002 Okmulgee • 2001 Enid • 2000 Newkirk • 1999 Cordell For Vinita, the Cowboys and Indians theme sounds super. Be sure to have a quick stop at the Hi-Way Cafe. The National Trust really promoted the restoration of that neon sign. Many may have seen articles about it. Also, it may be worth promoting that cool alley conversion that you did to create a public space downtown. Vinita worked with the OU Institute of Quality Communities....and then got the AARP grant to implement. This is a great story to share. Vinita DesignWorks | The Institute for Quality Communities What I've noticed over the years it that the more links or collaborations that your program has with other organizations and programs the more attractive the tour is (for being selected and for participating). So many Main Streeters want to see just how a local program taps into available resources. In the past 4 or 5 years, the Oklahoma Main Street towns really have tapped a lot of resources!

When I worked at Main Street, Directors lost their last names and gained their town names. I hope that is the same. All have incredible ideas. If these events could be a week long, we could cover everything. Also, I am thinking about a Pawhuska Mobile Workshop. I have a 40+year relationship there. It is a former Oklahoma Main Street town. The downtown is unique and thriving. A side trip would be to the Tallgrass Prairie Preserve. On the ground, at the conference, I can do grunt work very well......If someone needs a volunteer for their Mobile Workshop, please let me know. I know that I will be busy on that Saturday and Sunday with the EV/Design Meetings.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hello everyone, Just a heads up because I have gotten a lot of emails about the Mobile Workshop form. The application for the mobile workshop is very basic, it does not ask for many details. I have reached out to Nationals about it and have been told they do not need that on the initial submission. When workshops are selected they or I will reach out for more details. If you are selected these are some of the things they will need: * List fee on form when submitting per person/ total per group size you can host. 1. Make sure to list all expenses when submitting - Include any cost outside of ticket price (food, shopping etc.). Once ticket price is set, cannot change * Title (Short, Sweet and Informative) 8-10 words max * List what the Education piece in the tour - Examples- Streetscapes, pockets parks, historic preservation projects etc. How was the funded, obstacles, other resources used etc. * Mode of transit (bus, walking, other) - * List approximate walking in mileage so people can be prepared. * 50 person bus - this will leave seats for tour leaders * If touring more than one location, provide turn by turn directions. https://www.okmsf.org/2026-msn-tulsa-conference.html#/ I hope that helps, let me know if you have any additional questions.
