The mission of Main Street Mason City is to enhance, promote, and preserve Downtown Mason City as a diverse business, cultural, and residential destination for the benefit of the entire community. We are an organization who cares about the history and vibrancy of Downtown. Through the years we have worked with various organizations to promote the changes this community desperately needed. Our organization continues to promote further progress and make Downtown Mason City the heart of the community.
As a stand-alone organization of one staff person, we rely heavily on volunteer support. We are blessed with a fantastic board of directors who jump at the chance to get involved with events, promotions, business recruitment, and many other tasks associated with our work. We are not a membership organization, which allows us to provide assistance and services to all businesses within our Downtown District. Due to our lack of membership, our organization is also heavily reliant on financial investment from local businesses and citizens. Like any other business, we need money to cover our operating costs, this is where investment and donations play a large role. We are very grateful to all who donate to our organization - in all amounts.
As we continue to build our Main Street blog, we will provide you with insight to our organization, happenings in Downtown, best practices from our successful businesses, and much more. We will do our best to keep this updated a minimum of every other week and incorporate a few of our board and committee members as writers. If there is anything you would like us to report on, write about, or questions you have about our organization, please feel free to reach out by emailing director@mainstreetmasoncity.org.
Thank you and we look forward to hearing your thoughts!
