Welcome to the Official Website for the Fairfield Downtown Association! This is your source to the downtown Fairfield shopping district...where a friendly old town flavor is retained, convienent shopping abounds, and exciting events are held throughout the year. Please join us for an online tour of our hometown. FDA Board of Directors Elections and Making a Difference in Your Community The FDA will be conducting an election for all eleven seats on the Board of Directors. Creating a vibrant downtown is an exciting opportunity. It is a chance to make a difference in creating a sense of community in Fairfield. Building a vigorous capable leadership team is the foundation of a strong organization. As a Main Street program, the Fairfield Downtown Association (FDA) Board of Directors is responsible for the organization's activities advocating for Main Street revitalization principles. Together, Board members are responsible for FDA policy, planning, committee oversight, funding and financial management, advocacy and program evaluation. Reviewing the budget and monitoring program effectiveness are key components of the Board's role. The future of downtown Fairfield is in your hands. I hope you will help us to make it a place we can all be proud to call home. Most Sincerely, Gina M. Greenwood-Meinert

As I look back on the last quarter of 2009 at the Fairfield Downtown Association, one of the things I am most thankful for is that after years of closing the year in the red, we ended 2009 in the black. In these challenging times that is particularly meaningful. Mary Bourguignon is a grass-roots organizer who managed the successful Measure B campaign benefitting county libraries. She was the first Executive Director of the Solano County Library Foundation and coordinated the campaign that raised funds for the Cordelia Library. Her present attention is on childhood nutrition and promoting local food. Mary has been a volunteer for many downtown events and we are excited to have her help with our design committee. She is married to Rick Wood. Jane Loveall has lived with her husband in downtown Fairfield for 28 years. She is a professional artist and has had her work included in local, regional and national juried art exhibitions. She teaches art in the Fairfield-Suisun Unified School District. Her family roots in downtown Fairfield go back 5 generations. We are thrilled to have her join the design committee team. Randy Carlson has been a Fairfield area resident for 36 years and a downtown resident since 1989. Randy is married to Suzanne and they have a daughter who attends Armijo High School. He is a retired teacher of the F-SUSD where he worked from 1973-2007. Active in broad range of public roles, he has served as Suisun City Councilman, President of the Teachers' Association and Director of Solano Bicycle Classic 1999-2003. Mr. Carlson is a founder and active member of the all-volunteer Downtown Tree Committee, a regular Tomato Festival volunteer and has joined the FDA Promotions Committee. Carole Warren is a new member of our Promotions Committee. She has been a Dance & Vocal Instructor for over 47 years and is the proud owner of "Danc-Sing Stars Studio" in Fairfield. Carole is also the Local Pageant Director for the Miss Vacaville & Miss Solano County Pageants, and the Director of the Vacaville Talent Competition.

Carole actively assists in many community events throughout Fairfield and Vacaville. Nanette McKnight owns Olive Branch Embroidery, an apparel and promotional product services company. She is a Board member of the Community Action Council assisting with the transition in administration. Mrs. McKnight also serves as a Board member for the Solano Church and Community Council. Nanette is also a member of the Fairfield -Suisun Chamber of Commerce. Nanette, a talented amateur photographer, is also a new member of the FDA Promotions Committee Pam Spering and her politically active husband have lived in the Suisun-Fairfield area since 1980. Their three children attended local schools and graduated from Armijo H.S. They have operated a graphic printing shop, a paving construction firm, and have developed commercial and residential real estate, as well as sports and entertainment ventures. She manages the Missouri Street Theater out of our building at 1125 Missouri St. Pam brings a wealth of experience dealing with public and private agencies and is an advocate for the revitalization of downtown Fairfield.
