The Case for MSCW Membership:

The health and appeal of the downtown business district is a very important component to the village’s overall economy. For example, Main Street Canal Winchester was in the unique position last year to assume the Blues & Ribfest from Pickerington and develop it into a significant downtown event that attracted between 20-22,000 people into the village in its very first year! Worth noting is that: a) many of these visitors had never set foot in our village before and b) several area businesses saw a corresponding increase in traffic/sales. Our 2011 plans are underway and it promises to be even bigger and better!

Positive exciting developments like that are not possible without your support …they require organization, detailed planning, resources and plenty of old-fashioned hard work.  With your membership support, Main Street Canal Winchester can continue to help keep our historic business district a bustling attractive place to live, work, and/or play.  Please consider the following:

• Our downtown business district is the village’s primary marketing image to outsiders.
• The vitality and quality of the downtown core is, for better or worse, a direct reflection upon the entire village – both in and outside the immediate downtown district.
• Main Street Canal Winchester is the only economic/business development organization specifically focused on vitalization of the C.W. downtown business district.
• Main Street Canal Winchester is a catalyst for the preservation of historic buildings and for maintaining an attractive downtown streetscape.
• Main Street Canal Winchester events attract customers into the greater C.W. area through popular advertised celebrations and gatherings such as the Farmers’ Market, the Blues and Ribfest, and Christmas in the Village.
