WHAT: Today is to introduce the new organization and board of Experience Old Town
Warrenton, who is transitioning into the leadership role of Warrentons Main Street Program
initiatives.

Experience Old Town Warrenton has decided to become a new legal entity and not for profit
organization. EOTW will be focused on preserving our history and enhancing our economic
vitality as a sustainable organization, while applying to be reaccredited by the Virginia Main
Street program.

This effort began back in January through the current board of the Partnership for Warrenton.
EOTW wants to recognize the current Partnership for Warrenton Board of Trustees for carrying
forward and selflessly passing a resolution to fully support a reboot effort because they love our
town so much and want the 28-year history and leadership of the Main Street program to be
successful, and so EOTW may carry forward the mission through the new organization.

MISSION AND VISION:
