Clermont Main Street, an organization comprised of downtown businesses passionate about investing in the longstanding heart of Clermont which is in its downtown, will host its inaugural State of Clermont Main Street Thursday, Jan. 19, 2023, at 6 p.m.
“As we close out 2022, our first full year as an official Main Street program, we have much to be appreciative of,” shares Darren Johnson, Clermont Main Street Vice President. “We have put in place a strong board, created the four pillar committees, engaged public participation, hired a new, dynamic Executive Director, and drafted an achievable work plan and blueprint for the future of Downtown Clermont. While we have accomplished much in putting the organization and team together, the real work is ahead of us, that is putting the plan into action. We encourage all Clermont residents to get involved and help revitalize our downtown into a destination everyone can be proud of.”
The event will highlight the history of the organization, the achievements of the past year and the plan for the future. Clermont Main Street President, Kimberly Grogan adds that “We are just beginning to make an impact in the community and we cannot wait to see how our efforts grow in the upcoming year.”
Downtown businesses will be on hand ahead of the event in an expo setting for community members to discover. “We want to highlight the incredible businesses we have right here in downtown Clermont at our Inaugural State of Clermont Main Street,” notes Maritza Rivera, Clermont Main Street Executive Director. “Clermont has unique shops, delicious food and truly something for everyone to discover and we really want to showcase that within the community.”
