Passport to Christmas

We had a very successful 2024 Passport to Christmas with 32 participating businesses. Thanks to them and all the local shoppers we were able to give away $1600 to 3 lucky winners for shopping local this season! 

 

Best Decorated Business: 

We’re excited to announce the return of our Best Decorated Business Contest this year! After having to cancel last year's event due to concerns over fair play, we have introduced new rules and a judging process to ensure a transparent and enjoyable experience for all participants.
This year, a designated committee will visit each participating business to assess decorations based on specific criteria. By implementing this system, we aim to foster fun and fair competition while celebrating the creativity and community spirit of our local businesses.
