Connect Communities Gays Mills

Gays Mills has been named a “Connect Community” by the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) and we look forward to working with their staff and utilizing their resources so we can reach our goals, along with the assistance and mentorship of Prosperity Southwest Wisconsin and Driftless Development, INC. Our new Connect Communities Gays Mills wants to grow and enhance our community for the businesses, residents and the many visitors to our Village and surrounding area.

Connect Communities participants benefit from a variety of assistance and resources simply by being part of a broad-based network of communities with similar objectives. The program, launched in 2013, is designed to support and complement the Wisconsin Main Street Program, which has supported downtown community development since 1987.

Gays Mills downtown, uptown, our business district, surrounding businesses and attractions, all play an important role in our community and in Wisconsin’s overall economy, functioning not only as prominent employment and business centers, but often standing as the historic foundations of our community.

These are the places where people congregate to do business, attend events, or simply enjoy contact with their neighbors. Adding vitality to an area improves the quality of life for residents and visitors.  But successful communities don’t just happen, they need to be planned and nurtured. Their prosperity requires interest and action from stakeholders, like you, who share a vision for our community.

Feel free to contact us with any questions or ideas you may have for Gays Mills’ future.
