Marengo Main Street, Inc. is a member of the nonprofit Illinois Main Street program. Their goal is to stimulate community pride, preserve historic buildings, and keep businesses in business. Having a unique, local place to shop will benefit not only the business and building owners, but also the entire community.

That's the big difference between Main Street and other organizations like the Chamber of Commerce and Economic Development Commission.

While they focus on Marengo's business community, Main Street is a volunteer program open to participation from everyone in town. Whether you're a working parent, middle school student or retired executive, we want you to join us as we bring new life and new ideas to Marengo.

Marengo achieved designated status in April 2008. That means we've joined 68 other Illinois Main Street communities in one of the nation's most successful state programs.

Please join as either a partner or volunteer. Let's work together to make Marengo a great place to shop, visit, and live!
