Participate In This Years Holiday Shopping Trail

The Windham Region Chamber of Commerce is partnering with several other Eastern CT Chambers to promote our local small businesses during the holiday season.  This will be the second year we are working together.  Any participating business will be included in a “passport” where customers will be encouraged to visit starting on Small Business Saturday.  If you want to be listed in the passport for customers to find you (and they range from Mystic to Old Sturbridge) please make sure you sign up.  The deadline is October 15.  The flyer is attached.  The link to sign up is here:  ChamberECT.com/trail

There were hundreds of participants last year and we expect even more this year.  Customers with stamps in their passports are eligible for a grand prize…a round trip vacation to Ireland!!!

We will be having an organizational meeting to go over the details and to supply you with the passports, posters, stamps, etc. that you will need to be a participating location.  Please call Diane if you have any questions at 860-428-7739.

HOW IT WORKS:

Beginning on Small Business Saturday, November 30, and continuing until Tuesday, December 24, individuals can pick up a Holiday Shopping Trail passport at participating venues throughout eastern CT. Shoppers will accumulate stickers in their passports by visiting or making purchases at shops, restaurants, and other local businesses. These stickers will enter participants into a special drawing for prizes.

WHY IT WORKS:

The Trail is designed to bring customers through your door; the more stores a shopper visits the better the prize they can enter to win. The grand prize is a pair of airline tickets to Ireland! You can turn foot traffic into a sale or begin to build a relationship with a new customer.

SIGN UP TO PARTICIPATE:

There is no cost to participate, and your business will be featured on the Holiday Shopping Trail passport and in related marketing. This is a great opportunity to bring shoppers in your doors this holiday season, so don’t miss out!

DEADLINE TO SIGN UP: October 18, 2019

The Chamber of Commerce, Windham Region is hosting its 6th annual “Chicken Wing Challenge” motorcycle ride on Sunday, June 5, 2016. Riders will enjoy a scenic ride throughout Northeast CT and stops at 5 restaurants along the way. Everyone will taste the “secret recipe” or signature wing at each location and then judge who has the “best wings in Northeast CT.” The winning restaurant will be crowned the “King of Wings” and receive a traveling trophy for the year.

The Chamber is very active in promoting tourism in the Quiet Corner and hosts two motorcycle rides per year, the Chicken Wing Challenge and the Scenic Fall Tour. Both rides promote local attractions and the beautiful scenery that makes being in Northeast CT so wonderful.

We ask that anyone wanting to participate please register in advance so the restaurants will know how many guests to expect. You can register at www.WindhamChamber.com or by calling the Chamber at 860-423-6389. The cost is $25 per person or $40 with a passenger. Proceeds from this ride go to the Chamber’s Business Resource Center and helps provide free business services to companies in the Windham Region.
