Dear Friends and Neighbors,
This guide has been made with our community in mind. We have made a tradition of gathering as many offerings from the heart of our community, small businesses. Shops have been suffering. These hard working people have been doing their best to keep their doors open in order to keep serving all of us. We hope that you will utilize these exceptional small businesses by choosing one of a kind options this holiday season and all year long. I hope this guide will inspire you to “Eat, Shop and Be Merry.”
