“Main Street programs are important because they keep “life” in small town America. Local businesses, events, and service providers are what provide for families - not big corporations. Growing up, I remember my parents putting in tireless hours in PTO events, basketball boosters, band boosters, and haunted houses. Those events were so that we all could have something or somewhere to go and be a part of “something”. The sense of unity was immeasurable. It is time for us, our generation, to do the same for the next. If we don’t, who will? The best part about being a Guthrie Main Street board member is being on a team where everyone has the same outlook and a common goal.”
