Hi Main Streeters!
Welcome Center
It’s been a minute since we have posted news because we’ve been busy-busy working to get the Welcome Center at 19 West Main Street in tip-top shape, and ready for our grand opening! We have the last bit of the exhibit installation that will happen in the first week in August and the rest will be the finer details all in preparation of the Grand Opening Day on Friday, August 16th with a special ribbon cutting at 2:00pm and light refreshments.
Welcome Center History
We started fundraising for this project in 2020, which was of course, the hardest time ever to start a large capital project in the middle of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Work was slow too, as we had starts, stops, gaps with funding and gaps with materials and labor. But thanks to the hard work of the Main Street Middletown Board, our incredibly generous donors, our incredibly fantastic grantors, the uber talented workforce that actually did the labor, and a patient Middletown Community for not losing faith in our ability to get this done, we are sitting here today, proud, thankful, and excited to finally be able to share the in this moment!
Can’t Wait to See You Here
Be sure to stop by the Welcome Center to help us celebrate this achievement on Friday the 16th! We look forward to seeing you!
