Shop local campaign called "It's in the bag!" features locally made canvas shopping bags sold through Huron County Chambers of Commerce and BIAs for $10 each.

Huron County has launched a new shop local program - Huron Local
First. A program campaign called "It's in the bag!" features locally
made canvas shopping bags sold through Huron County Chambers of
Commerce and BIAs for $10 each.  When consumers make purchases at
participating businesses, they'll receive a discount or perk when they
show their Huron Local First bag.

Businesses can participate by filling out the attached form and
sending it back with $50 to the County of Huron.  In doing so, they
will receive:

A Huron Local First bag filled with promotional and marketing materials
A photo shoot of your business which will be posted on www.shopinhuron.ca
An interview and article about your business which will be posted on
www.shopinhuron.ca
A business listing, on www.shopinhuron.ca, which includes the
discount/perk your business is offering to consumers who show their
Huron Local First bag

Attached, you will find the business letter and form which contains
more information about the program, a current list of participating
businesses and a current list of participating Chambers and BIAs.  For
more information, or to have your questions answered, please contact
Chelsea Burchill, Local First Coordinator, at 519-524-8394 ext 3 or
shop@huroncounty.ca.

Take care and have a fantastic Victoria Day Holiday weekend!
