Grants help spiffy up Main Street

The Colfax Downtown Association has awarded storefront grants of up to $2,500 to five Main Street businesses. The expectation is, with more attractive storefronts, businesses will catch more eyes and more business from people passing through town.

“Improving Main Street, one grant at a time,” said CDA Director Whitney Bond.

The businesses awarded are Sol Vallarta, Colfax Barber Shop, Route 26 Vintage, Bully for You and the Colfax Eagles.
