Mission
Logan
Town
Center Inc. is a non-profit corporation whose board of directors and
members
represent community organizations and citizens who are committed to
restore the
economic and cultural vitality of Logan’s original town center for the
enjoyment and benefit of the residents, visitors, business and property
owners
in the Hocking Hills.
We
are using the National Trust for
Historic Preservation’s Main
Street Four-Point Approach® with its
focus on:
organization, design, promotion and economic restructuring. We
aspire to qualify as a full participant
of the Trust’s Main Street program,
administered here by Heritage
Ohio.

our vision for Logan’s Town Center appears below, followed by a draft
of our
2009-2010 Plan of Action.
