Sip & Shop
Thursday November 17th - 4pm to 8pm
· Sip & Shop is a kick off to Holiday shopping- The center will already be decorated for the holidays at this time for a festive feel.
· The concept for this event is for each store to offer a promotion during event hours and to stay open a little later. The event is designed to encourage customers to walk around the center and visit each store to shop and enjoy libations and promotions.
· In addition to your promotion, please let us know whether you will provide a drink or a snack for customers. We would like every store to offer something different so the customer can experience variety.
ü Drink options could be: hot cocoa, tea, cider, coffee, wine, water, beer, etc.
ü Snack options could be: cheese, fruit, veggies, candy-canes, cookies, etc.
ü Please send me your promotion and libation offering by October 15th. Note that we may ask you to change your snack or drink if there are too many merchants offering the same item which will be determined on a first response basis.
· We will be hiring local acoustic musicians to play in the center during the event to add to the experience.
· The event will be promoted on the marquee, concierge outreach, newsletter, social media, and the community paper. We ask that you send word out through your mailing lists as well.
