It's Spring!
|  The Adopt-a-Planter Program is now in its 20th year. The DTC established this program to help create a more inviting atmosphere in our Downtown for all to enjoy. Each year businesses step up to adopt a designated planter(s).
The adoption consists of a donation toward each planter for the soil and greenery. The DTC staff and handful of volunteers plant almost 1,000 plants/flowers, all led by Penny White. Adopting businesses agree to maintain with plenty of water throughout the summer months.
The DTC purchased each planter; we're now up to 53 within the Downtown core. When you are contacted, we hope you will once again participate in this colorful initiative. Thank you, again, to the adopting businesses and volunteers.

Downtown Is...
|
...the heart and soul of every city. It is the gathering place for its people and the physical and aesthetic expression of its collective visions. A downtown is the manifestation of the diversity of the intellectual, cultural, social, business and political consciousness of its people.
