Check out this video produced by the Main Street program of the MSHDA. There are lots of shots of cool Michigan downtowns, including Howell’s.
Keep your eye on the video and you’ll see one of downtown Howell’s most-famous kids at one of its cool restaurants. While you’re at it, count up the local faces and places featured in this state-wide production.
This year, there’s a cool contest that ties into holiday shopping. The ShopMIDowntown Holiday Challenge asks everyone to do at least 75 percent of their shopping this holiday season in downtowns and Michigan Main Street districts.
Shoppers who go online and share their downtown shopping experience will be eligible to win one of five weekend getaway packages at Michigan hotels.
For official contest rules, go to ShopMIDowntown. Check out www.michiganmainstreetcenter.com. For more information on MSHDA,visit www.michigan.gov/mshda.
