NEWS RELEASE
TOWN OF THE BLUE MOUNTAINS
*************************
This holiday season, the Town of The Blue Mountains urges residents and visitors to shop early, shop local and shop safe, as every dollar spent at a local business is an investment into the community. To reinforce this message, the Town has launched a new shop local campaign, titled Give The Gift of Blue.
In partnership with Blue Mountain Village Association, The Blue Mountains Chamber of Commerce, Thornbury BIA, Clarksburg Village Association and Grey County, the initiative aims to emphasize the importance of shopping early and to shop safely while supporting local businesses and entrepreneurs.
“Local businesses are the beating heart of the community,” says Mayor Alar Soever. “In a time of global economic uncertainty, supporting businesses in The Blue Mountains and coming together as a community this holiday season has never been more important.”
Starting on Monday, Nov. 30 until Sunday, Jan. 3, 2021, when you make a purchase at a local business in The Blue Mountains, you can enter for a chance to win one of five weekly prizes valued at $250, as well as the chance to win the ultimate Blue Mountains grand prize experience valued at $2,500.
