TDDA executive director Jamie Carpenter and board President Scott Hooper attended the Main Street Now conference in Seattle, WA! They were among 1,700 other downtown directors, volunteers and advocates from towns as small as Tryon to neighborhoods in big cities. Carpenter and Hooper are returning to Tryon with great excitement and big ideas for Tryon. 

 

This professional development trip was generously funded by our partners at the Polk County Community Foundation.
