Calling All Downtown Champions: Main Street Steamboat Is Recruiting New Board Members!

---

If you’ve ever found yourself brainstorming ways to make downtown even more welcoming, more vibrant, or just a little more Steamboat, this might be your moment. Main Street Steamboat is officially recruiting new Board of Directors members, and we’re looking for passionate, creative, community‑minded folks who represent a downtown Steamboat Springs business.

 Whether you run a shop, manage a restaurant, lead a team, or keep a beloved local business humming behind the scenes, your voice matters. And we want it at the table.

 Why Join the Board? Because Downtown Doesn’t Run on Autopilot

 Downtown Steamboat is full of energy, events, small businesses, public spaces, locals, visitors, and that unmistakable mountain‑town charm. But keeping it thriving takes real people with real ideas.

Board members help guide Main Street Steamboat’s direction, champion local businesses, and make sure our work reflects what’s actually happening on Lincoln Avenue, Yampa Street, Oak Street, and everywhere in between. You’ll help shape programs, support activation, and keep downtown moving forward with intention.

 And yes, we meet monthly, but we promise it’s not boring.

 A Word From Lisa Popovich

 Executive Director Lisa Popovich loves reminding people that board service isn’t just governance — it’s community building.

 “Our board members are the heartbeat of downtown,” said Popovich. “They bring the everyday experience of running a business in Steamboat Springs, and that perspective keeps us focused on what matters most: supporting a thriving, connected, and successful downtown for everyone.”

 She’s right. Downtown works because downtown people show up.

 Who We’re Looking For

 If this sounds like you, we want to talk:

 You represent a downtown Steamboat Springs business

• You care about the future of downtown
• You enjoy collaboration, creativity, and problem‑solving
• You’re willing to attend monthly meetings and contribute your perspective

 Bonus points if you love a good brainstorm, a lively discussion, or a well‑organized agenda.

 Ready to Jump In? Let’s Talk.
