A Little Glow on Main Street

TSC North America provides marketing solutions for a widespread group of clients from the historical city of Marengo, IL. Since our office is outside the city limits, it requires our team to apply all of our networking skills to be a part of our community.

It started with joining the Marengo-Union Chamber of Commerce. Cindi Carrigan, our Marketing VP, served on the Chamber board for almost seven years. Since 2004, TSC has contributed the web design and support  for the Chamber as part of their membership commitment. When the Chamber began sharing their office with the Economic Development Commission, we started working for the EDC, which introduced us to the City Council, who recently awarded us the contract to revamp the City’s web site.

TSC North America's Entry in the Savin' a Rainy Day programIn 2010, Lucia Matlock assumed the position of Executive Director of Marengo Main Street, and guess where her office is located? You’ve got it – she’s also in the Chamber office. It was natural that word of her work reached us from the other office occupants, and she learned about us as well. When the “Savin a Rainy Day” program was launched, it seemed to be a perfect fit for all of us!

The program was opened to 20 organizations who, for an entry fee of $100, were given a recycled plastic 55-gallon food container that had been repurposed into a rain barrel. Each organization was responsible for decorating their barrel and there was a public unveiling at the Community Garage Sale. They will be displayed on Main Street for two months and they will be auctioned off as part of the Settler’s Days celebration in October.

Our theme – Sparking Creativity – is proudly displayed just north of the intersection of Routes 20 and 23, where everyone can see the glow of the fireflies as they drive by on these sultry summer evenings.

Thanks, Marengo Main Street, for showing off our work in such a high traffic area! And thanks to Marengo Happenings for providing great photos of the unveiling!
