Jeanette McAskill, Owner, Ribbons & Lace
"Since moving Ribbons & Lace downtown in March 2011 from my home,
I have had tremendous pick up in foot traffic; I have people traveling 40, 50 ,
60 miles and more to visit my store! I absolutely enjoy being in the downtown
and being a part of the revitalization! I continue working on the preservation
of my building and invite everyone to visit!"
Mike Ewy, President & CEO Community State Bank
As one of the many local business owners and individuals that have and are continuing to invest in our Downtown Coffeyville program, I would like to assure you that your investment will create a good return for our community.
Becky Campbell, Owner Sunflower Soda Fountain and Creating Memories
"When I moved my business downtown I had no idea how rewarding it was going to be. People love coming into my shop and the downtown in general. Many are reminiscing about the good old days, all the stores and spending the whole day downtown shopping, etc. They want it back so bad for their kids and grandkids to enjoy like they did. Young families have a great time coming in, they feel it's very personable and relaxing. I can't express how exciting it is to be a part of the downtown revitalization. My dream is to be here for many more years and see it become a "happening place" again."
Alicia Yates, President & CEO Nado Alley/Coffeyville Printing Center
"I have found it very rewarding being a member of the Downtown Coffeyville program. To know that you are a part of having a hand in building the present and the future of Coffeyville is very exciting and exhilarating. Come join us, you won't regret leaving your thumbprint on this great city."
Lisa Brookover, Owner, Sunflower Antiques & Treats
"Our Spring Open House was the best day of foot traffic and highest sales record yet! The second was during our Christmas Open House thanks to Main Street."
Bob Eastman, Attorney
"Since the inception of Main Street, I’ve seen businesses move in and hotels being built and I believe Main Street was instrumental in this process. In addition, I think it’s been 30 years since discussion on the fountain being renovated has even been considered. All in all I think Downtown Coffeyville Inc. (Main Street) has improved morale and is gently causing some business activity to be established that would not have been."
Jean Walterscheid, Owner, Ishams Tru Value Hardware
"Downtown Coffeyville definitely looks better, thanks to the good citizens who have given hours of their time to address the beginning physical aspects of the Main Street program and get it off to a good start. Give the Main Street program a helping hand –whenever you can and however you can!"
Vickie Goodwin, Owner, Palm Beach Fitness
"With more focus on downtown than ever before, I’m thrilled that Downtown Coffeyville partnered with KARE & CCC’s horticulture department to plant flowers out in front of our building!"
Sharon Ray, Owner, Gold & Silver
"As a business owner, I’m so excited about the thought of us re-doing our town, giving us a chance to bring back the vitality that we know we have as a community. Everything has really come full circle from what it used to be with people wanting to go to shopping malls; NOW their looking for the personal service of the small business. We’re going forward in a nice pace in partnership with the city to work harder and improve our buildings. I’ll do anything I can to improve our downtown."
