Downtown Algonquin Partnership Mission Statement:
 
 
To help increase the desirability of Downtown Algonquin as a destination place for residents and visitors by creating an image that is lively and dynamic.
 
 
 
 
What is the Downtown Algonquin Partnership?
 
 
It is an informal group (no dues) of downtown merchants, property owners, residents and other stakeholders who began meeting in 2003 to enhance the vitality of Algonquin's Old Town District. The Partnership seeks to preserve Downtown Algonquin as the "heart and soul" of the community and help businesses to survive and thrive.
 
 
 
 
What does the Partnership do?
 
  The Partnership promotes Downtown Algonquin through a series of special events and activities. The group is currently organizing a Farmers Market to be held during summer 2008. In addition to the group's involvement with specific events, the Partnership also organizes joint marketing opportunities for businesses in the downtown, including advertising in local newspapers.  
     
  The Downtown Partnership is a member the Algonquin/Lake in the Hills Chamber of Commerce and for a nominal fee individual businesses are welcome to join the Chamber through the Partnership's membership and take part in networking and social opportunities. The Partnership has also recently developed and launched its own website, http://www.downtownalgonquin.org, to provide information to the public about the downtown businesses and special events.
