This Weekend: Shop Locally in Support of Small Businesses; Holiday Tree Lighting Saturday Night at Town Square; Wing Point Holiday Market

| Posted on |

Shop Small Saturday is tomorrow, November 29. It’s the perfect day to support the independent shops, artisans, and restaurants that make Bainbridge Island so wonderfully original.

This year, the City Council officially proclaimed November 29 as Small Business Saturday recognizing the essential role local businesses play in our economy and community identity.

When you shop local:

      • 68 cents of every dollar spent at a small business stays in the local economy.
  • Every dollar spent generates an additional 48 cents in local economic impact as employees and business owners reinvest in local goods and services.

ADVERTISEMENTS:

So, visit our local shops and support our island economy – in Downtown Winslow, High School Road, Lynwood Center, Rolling Bay, Day Road and Island Center! Afterwards, head to Town Square at 6 p.m. for Illuminate Bainbridge! (See below).

Celebrate the Lights of the Season Saturday November 29th, 6-7pm @ Town Square

We invite all to join in welcoming the holidays by Celebrating the Lights of the Season. Following Shop Small Business Saturday, the community is invited to join at the Town Square (between City Hall and BPA, where the Farmer’s Market takes place) to enjoy seasonal performances by the Bainbridge High School band, Nutcracker ballet selections by Bainbridge Ballet, as well as songs performed by the BISD Choir.  There will be hot apple cider and you won’t want to miss “Sweets with the Squad”.
