Come take a walk with us!

We’re inviting the community to join us for a Walking Audit this Wednesday, September 2 at 6:00 PM, beginning at Abbey Bar.

We’ll walk Downtown together and take a closer look at how our district actually works on our sidewalks: what works, what doesn't, what needs some love...

You don’t need to be a planner, architect, business owner, or downtown expert. We want the perspective of the people who use Downtown.

Wear comfortable shoes and come walk with us.

Meet at The Abbey
Wednesday, September 2
6:00 PM

See you Downtown!

The most fun you’ll ever have going almost nowhere is just over a week away!

The 6th Annual DeLand Micro-Marathon 0.5K Pub Crawl is the “race” where the distance is short, the pace is questionable and there are more hydration stations than your average marathon.

Join us Saturday, August 29, from 4–8 p.m. for an afternoon of fun, fellowship and supporting local charities. No training required. Just bring your sense of humor and your best race-day spirit!

Get your tickets at DDRotary.org.

A good downtown is built by people who care.

Support the business down the street. Welcome someone new. Say hello. Lend a hand. Give a little grace.

Small things add up. They’re part of what makes Downtown DeLand feel like a community, not just a place.

As we kick off Be Kind to Humankind Week, take care of your Downtown. Take care of each other.
