It's hard to believe it, but the holiday season is upon us. Salina Dowtown Inc. invites the community to spend the afternoon in downtown Salina visiting their favorite stores to see what new is in store for the holidays.
Stores downtown will be open from 12:00 – 5:00 p.m. and you will be able to get a head start on your holiday shopping, or better yet, find something special for yourself.
“According to the Huffington Post, spending $100 at a local business nets $68 in economic activity, compared to spending $100 at a big box retailer, which nets only $48 in local economic activity," Bishop said.
Bishop said, that for small businesses, the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas brings in more sales than any other time of the year.
“Our downtown businesses appreciate the support our community gives them, and we look forward to seeing everyone in downtown Salina on Sunday, Nov 5 and throughout the holiday season," Bishop said.
