We beautify and promote our downtown district from our ongoing floral beautification, seasonal decor, and decorative lighting, to our promotional events and festivals. We add vibrancy to our streetscape and encourage our downtown businesses to do the same.

Our Mandate:

To promote business in downtown Carleton Place, aesthetically improve the BIA district and connect businesses to each other and the community at large.
