$10 spent at these businesses, customers receive a raffle ticket. These tickets are then collected for a drawing to win a collection of items donated by the participating businesses. Our Downtown Association also contributes a "night on the town" prize, which
includes $100 for a restaurant and $100 for a retail business of the winner's choice. Additionally, our local theater donates a pair of tickets.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<br>
I wanted to reach out and see which of you participate in Small Business Saturday? The Saturday between Black Friday and Cyber Monday? We would like to do something for it this year, but we are so small and don’t have a ton of downtown businesses. We’re considering
how we can promote shopping local and also get creative with possibly other ideas to draw crowds to our downtown during the event.
<br>
<br>
Are there any cities with populations lower than 5,000 that participate in this event? I’d love to hear what you do for it in your towns.
<br>
<br>
Thanks so much!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
