Volunteer

The ADDC is always in need of volunteers to serve on our committees (see below), to help plan downtown events, work on public beautification of Downtown, or assist with administrative support.

Committees

The standing committees of Design, Economic Vitality, Organization, and Promotion each meet monthly to carry out a Plan of Work that is approved by the ADDC Board each fiscal year (July-June). The ADDC also hosts three annual fundraising events, and is always looking for volunteers to help plan and staff these events. 

• Design: Makes downtown a beautiful, inviting and safe environment by implementing public beautification, public art, and assistance with Downtown building design.
• Economic Vitality: focuses on capital, incentives, and other economic and financial tools to assist new and existing businesses.
• Organization: Creates a strong foundation for a sustainable revitalization effort, including cultivating partnerships, community involvement and resources for the district. If you have skills in leadership, volunteer recruitment, sponsorship solicitation, or grant writing, this group is for you!
• Promotion: positions the downtown as the center of the community and hub of economic activity, while creating a positive image that showcases a community’s unique characteristics. If you possess a creative streak, a strong background in marketing, or enjoy planning events, this is the group for you!
• ADDC Fundraisers: Holiday Tour of Homes, Stanly County Winter Wine Festival, Outdoorsman’s Bonanza
