Membership Benefits

Families may join the DSCP for $50.00. This type of membership allows you and your family members to save money at more than two dozen downtown businesses with the 'Carrot Card.' Participating downtown businesses offer 10 - 20% savings... and some items FREE! The Carrot Card is a benefit available exclusively to DSCP members. For a listing of participating businesses, please see our "Carrot Card" page.

Businesses may join the partnership to utilize the 'Carrot Card' incentive as well. Business members also benefit from the DSCP's extensive advertising campaign which highlights members by name within the print material.

As a free service to its members, the DSCP has tools available to assist with creating a Business Plan or a Marketing Plan, in addition to the multitude of resource people and guides to help build your business. Through its six standing committees, the DSCP acts as a liaison to the City of St. Charles by making recommendations which align with mission statement: to enhance the economic viability and preserve the beauty and character of downtown St. Charles.
