Welcome Clare Jones: Main Street Fountain Inn's New Coordinator

Main Street Fountain Inn is excited to welcome Clare Jones as our new Main Street Coordinator. Clare officially joined the City of Fountain Inn team on June 1, bringing with her a passion for community, downtown development, and building strong relationships with local businesses and stakeholders.

After a thoughtful and extensive search, we are thrilled to have found someone who not only understands the importance of a vibrant downtown but also already has strong ties to the Fountain Inn community. Many of our business owners and residents may already recognize Clare as a familiar face, and she has wasted no time jumping into the work of supporting and strengthening our downtown district.

As Main Street Coordinator, Clare will serve as a key resource for downtown businesses, property owners, community partners, and volunteers. She will help lead communication efforts, coordinate downtown initiatives, support events and promotions, and work alongside merchants to enhance the vitality and success of Main Street Fountain Inn.

One of Clare's primary goals is to strengthen communication and engagement throughout the downtown district. Business owners can expect to receive regular updates, reminders, opportunities for involvement, and information about programs and resources available through Main Street Fountain Inn. These communications are designed to help businesses stay informed, connected, and engaged in the continued growth of our downtown.

"We have exciting plans for the future of downtown Fountain Inn," said Amanda Benfield, Director of Community Relations. "Clare's enthusiasm, local knowledge, and commitment to our community make her an outstanding addition to our team. We are looking forward to working with our businesses, property owners, and community partners as we continue building a thriving downtown together."

Main Street Fountain Inn is dedicated to preserving, promoting, and enhancing the historic downtown district while supporting economic growth, community engagement, and quality of place. The success of the program depends on active participation from the businesses and stakeholders who make downtown Fountain Inn such a special destination.

We encourage everyone to join us in welcoming Clare to the team. Whether you own a business, work downtown, volunteer, or simply enjoy spending time in Fountain Inn, we look forward to continuing to work together to make our downtown an even better place to live, work, shop, and visit.

Thank you for being part of Main Street Fountain Inn and helping us continue to build the #BestInnSC.
