Newton is one of 30 Main Street designated communities in Kansas and over a thousand across the nation. Part of being a Main Street Community means we have access to additional resources and opportunities for our small businesses and Main Street. Main Street America has just updated their resource page for Small Businesses. Please make sure to go check it out and take advantage of this wonderful opportunity.
