VOLUNTEER WITH US!

Spend some time with us! We are always looking for volunteers to help at special events!

What better way to get to know your neighbors than to join them?


Many of our volunteers at Saco Main Street work or live in our beautiful city, and through volunteering with us have developed good friendships.

You don’t have to stay all day; just an hour or two will make a huge impact on our events and projects while you have fun and enjoy our wonderful community.

join a committee

Each of our annual events has a committee of volunteers wanting to make it happen, bigger and better than the year before. We are always looking for more ideas and inspiration to improve upon the existing framework of our city.

If you are more interested in a long-term position, Saco Main Street operates with the Four-Point Approach to Downtown Organizations, as described by the national organization Main Street America. Each point has a committee, as detailed here on our Organization page, and we’d love to have you join us in improving our efficiency and impact.
