From the Orcas Island Chamber of Commerce
‘Shop the Rock’ weekend kicks off Friday, December 2
Annual Tree Lighting Celebration on Saturday, December 3
The Orcas Island Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce a variety of Holiday Fun & Shopping Deals this December.
On Friday, December 2, the Holiday Season ‘Shop the Rock’ campaign gets underway. Local merchants will be offering terrific sales for the season, and the Chamber’s Orcas First initiative to shop locally will once again offer $200 in cash prizes for four lucky winners!
To enter the contest, all shoppers have to do is visit an island Chamber-member business on either Friday or Saturday (December 2 & 3), and fill out an entry form (available from the store). They will leave the entry with the business, and the Chamber will collect the weekend entries and announce the winners on Monday, December 5. All the more reason to check out the great gift ideas at one of our local businesses!
On Saturday, December 3, the annual Village Green tree lighting ceremony will take place. The festivities start at 3:30 pm, with hot cider and baked goodies for all in attendance. Shortly thereafter, Santa & Mrs. Claus will arrive, with bags of toys and treats for all the kids. The Community Band will provide holiday melodies, and then at approximately 4:45 pm, the evening will be capped off with the lighting of the tree, resplendent with bright, sparkling winter lights.

The Orcas Island Chamber of Commerce wishes everyone the happiest of holiday seasons!
