SPONSOR THE VISITOR CENTER
Sponsor the New Mancos Valley Visitor Center
he Mancos Valley Chamber of Commerce will be opening a new Visitor’s Center this spring. This new location will share a building with the much-anticipated Millie’s Cafe, a fabulous new breakfast and lunch spot. We anticipate it will provide much greater exposure for our chamber, our town, and our local businesses. We will have highway-facing signage, sunny outdoor seating, and a spot on the main corridor to our Grand Avenue and Main Street businesses. Our goal will be to bring more of the million+ cars that pass on highway 160 into Mancos.
We need business support to make this a memorable space that promotes Mancos and that makes repeat customers of anyone who happens to pull off the main drag.
If you have the capacity, please become a visitor center sponsor. In this first year, money raised will go towards improvements to the space and an initial investment in regional souvenirs to sell. Annual sponsors will be supporting the ongoing operations of the space – the more support we receive, the more capacity we will have to keep the doors open for longer and to staff the front desk with friendly and knowledgeable locals.
If you want to make a one-time donation, email and ask for a sponsorship form, or pay online here – just make sure to include “visitor center sponsorship” in your reason for donating. If you would like to become a sustaining sponsor, you can change your chamber membership level at https://mancosvalley.com/our-chamber/join – just click on “Chamber Sponsor” and pick the level that works best for you.
