The Emporia Main Street Hype Team is composed of community members who share a passion for the progress happening in Emporia and the Region and have a desire to promote it. Hype Team members serve as ambassadors during large events held in downtown Emporia. Hype Team members work as a united front to welcome visitors downtown, answer questions visitors may have, and encourage people to use #ExploreEmporia when posting about their positive experience downtown.
Hype Team members will be asked to volunteer throughout the year. We would love to see ya 2-4 times at events and special projects!
Hype Team members will be asked to help promote Emporia Main Street and it's events and initiatives on their personal social media accounts (a minimum of 1 time each week). EMS will provide the content. Hype Team members are required to attend a 1-hour orientation and training session. During the orientation, team members learn more about Emporia Main Street and the Hype Team expectations.

This year we are offering an extension to our HYPE program with HYPE Hounds. This team will be comprised of dog owners who take their pets out into the community and showcase events and activities with their pets.
HYPE Hounds must be friendly. We understand that some dogs do better at home and not surrounded by strangers. If your pet is aggressive or doesn't do well out in public, this program isn't a good fit for them. (we still love all the dogs, we just want to make sure all dogs and humans are in safe spaces).
