We've wrapped up December, we've wrapped up 2022, and we've wrapped up another year of the Holiday Lights Punch Card event! THANK YOU to everyone for proving once again what a great community we live in! You stayed local, shopped local, and supported businesses that do all they can to support you! And through it, you helped keep $237,600 in Vinton just over the holiday alone with the punch cards!
But that's just one side of the equation! A huge THANK YOU also goes out to all those businesses that saw us coming, offered a helping hand as we shopped, extended their business hours, came in on Sundays, and even opened their doors during a blizzard to make sure we had the things we needed . . . just in time for Christmas! Those businesses also gave back with the Holiday Lights Punch Card weekly winners and a grand prize valued at over $1,200! The lucky weekly winners included Glenda Shipley, Julie Havran, Brandi Meyer, Tina Fowler, and Wayne Siela.
