Letter from lorain's acting director of development

Dear Friends of Lorain,

With your help, the wonderful people of our city will be Reclaiming Downtown Lorainon Saturday, June 16, 2012 from 7am to 5pm.  Our goal is to spruce up and beautify our main Broadway corridor prior to the upcoming Summer festival season.

The target area is Broadway from West 21st Street to West Erie Avenue.  Work includes cleaning, landscaping, and painting of buildings and structures.  We need your help!  This is a great project which promotes goodwill and instills community pride.  Several buildings within the corridor will be adopted by volunteer groups for a much needed make-over.  If interested, please contact me at 440-204-2020 or rey_carrion@cityoflorain.org.

The following corporate sponsors have pledged their support:  Home Depot, Lowes, WalMart, City of Lorain, Lions Club, Elks Lodge, Gold Country WOBL, Campana Management, Lorain County Ironmen, WEOL, Lorain Port Authority, Lorain Growth Corporation, Faroh’s Candies, Lorain Arts Council, Lorain Palace Theater, Downtown Lorain Consortium, Veard Construction, Marwill Construction, and many more.  Please join us and help us change the image of our great city.

Thank you!
