JOIN A COMMITTEE
College Park Main Street continues to make a vital difference to the attractive, economically vibrant community that College Park is today. Our success is due in large part to the enthusiastic, engaged volunteers who serve on our four steering committees and who truly energize the efforts that have led to our long track record of success! These four committees help steer the promotion, design, organization, and economic growth efforts to make College Park Main Street one of the best districts in all of Orlando! We need your help to oversee the College Park Main Street events and projects that benefit the entire community. Please see our list of committees and descriptions below, and consider joining these critical teams.
