During this economic downturn, it is more important than ever that Main Street Momence continues its mission of supporting existing local business as well as focusing our creative energies on attracting new and innovative outfits to our historic downtown district. All of this while continuing to host downtown events, attend volunteer trainings, spearhead beautification efforts and promote the preservation of our entirely unique 19th Century central business district.
