There is lots of excitement about the 2nd Annual Mainstreet Piqua Chocolate walk on Friday, October 14th. We have completely sold out of tickets and probably could have sold another 50! There are 28 businesses participating!

The first market of the 2010 season of the Piqua Community Farmers Market was yesterday and we had a wonderful turn out of vendors and customers. With several new vendors added to the existing array of regular vendors we had quite a full market. Very soon we will have some Farmers Market billboards to help spread the word about the weekly market. In the meantime we hope that we can continue to build the weekly attendance. If you love the market tell your friends and family about it!

Taste of the Arts is coming soon

Hard to believe that Taste of the Arts is less than three weeks away. It is going to be a great event. Going strictly by the numbers we have 14 restaurants, 10 demonstrating artists, 6 kids zone activities, one teen "graffiti" activity and one entire evening of fun. Don't forget to be there... Friday, May 15 from 5 - 9 p.m. in downtown Piqua. www.mainstreetpiqua.com

Clean Up Day Slated for Downtown Piqua

Mainstreet Piqua will be hosting a downtown Clean Up Day on Saturday, May 2. The fun gets underway at 8:30 a.m. at the gazebo on High Street. Our goal is to get the downtown looking spiffy and clean for all the fun stuff we have planned for the coming months.

We will start with coffee and donuts at the gazebo and then move on from there - great fun will be had by all!

Flowers, Flowers Everywhere!

Mainstreet Piqua is in the process of raising funds for the Downtown Piqua Planter program. This is a picture of the way the planters looked last summer.

We are hoping to raise about $1,500 to buy the flowers and greenery for this year's planter program.
