Creative Placemaking Contest

Northwestern Rural Electrical Cooperative Association is working to help revitalize our rural communities. Work is underway in Cambridge Springs to help grow the economy and population through the creation of catalytic projects to attract and retain the next generation of workforce.

Creative Placemaking is a people-centered approach to building strong, vibrant communities; it’s a planning process that leverages the uniqueness of your community into cultural and entrepreneurial amenities like restaurants, breweries, co-working spaces, and business incubators (among other things). We believe rural America is the next place to pioneer.

We invite your communities to come and show us why your town should be the next place to grow. What is unique about your community? What do you brag about to friends, family, or tourists?

Active Aging in Cambridge Springs is surveying local residents regarding child care needs, if any. Their survey can be found HERE. You can email your complete survey to stacie@meadvilleymca.org by Sept. 5, 2023.
