Hello,

Barb Watters photo

March is most likely coming in as a lion...but you know what that means: 
That means Downtown is getting ready for Fat Tuesday, St. Patrick's Day and Spring!! On Tuesday, March 5, Nino's Italian Bakery will have their traditional paczki in many flavors. AJ O'Brady's St. Patrick's Fest starts Friday, March 15 and goes through Sunday March 17 (see details below).

After 13 years, it is time for me to say goodbye as BID Director. I want to thank all the BID Board Directors and Village personnel I had the opportunity to work beside and help the BID office grow the Downtown into the vibrant area it has become and will continue to be. I have been fortunate to know the business/building owners that have come and gone and wish continued success and happiness to all.  

And many heartfelt thanks to the wonderful volunteers that have made this 13 years more enjoyable. A BIG thank you to my husband, Larry Owen for the countless hours he has given to our Downtown before, during and after events and things that just needed fixing up around here.  

So, as I dry my eyes, I would like to welcome Paige Lesniewski as the new Downtown Village Centre BID Director. Paige has a personal passion for growing small businesses as she owns one herself. She is thrilled and honored to be able to be apart of the Menomonee Falls Downtown District Community. 


Keep informed through this newsletter, our Facebook page and our website.

See you Downtown!

Hi Everyone, 

 

I am very excited to be working as the new BID Director of the Downtown Village Centre BID! I started working in the Falls five years ago with a local dance studio and quickly fell in love with the area! Since then I have coached at the high school, taught for the recreation center and done work with the Falls Patio Players. Everyone in the community has been so welcoming and kind. I can't wait to see what the future holds for the BID and the amazing small businesses here!
