Downtown Business Owners: We Want to Talk to You!

As the Main Street Makeover steps it up a notch this week, we want to help you get the word out about the events and deals that will bring people downtown. Meet us Thursday at Fieldstone Winery to chat about it.

Main Street through most of downtown Rochester closes for about 12 weeks starting today. But that doesn't mean we all need to stop patronizing downtown.

In case you hadn't noticed, we love downtown Rochester (we just checked; in the past year Patch writers have posted 218 stories about downtown — that's a lot of love!)

So now is the time to let us help you keep it alive.

Rochester Patch is hosting a networking event for downtown business owners from 2 to 4 p.m. Thursday at . Stop by and tell Patch what's going on at your boutique, restaurant or business.

Having a special "construction" sale? Changing menus? Have new hours? Come tell us about it. In turn, we'll help you publicize your business news and show you how to use our free events calendar, directory and announcements to get the word out about what's happening in your shop.
