Win Chamber
Cash Ornaments
In addition to the Rayne Holiday Market at the Depot Square on Saturday, Nov. 30, will be a “Shop Small Saturday” promotion that a number of local businesses have signed on to participate.
A list of participating local businesses included in last week’s newspaper of each business having a paper ornament for shoppers to collect during the special weekend of shopping.
Each shopper will turn in those ornaments at the Rayne Holiday Market at the Depot for a Chamber Cash drawing of $100 at 1:30 p.m. Saturday afternoon.
Only one ornament may be turned in per person per business. But remember, the more businesses visited and the more ornaments collected, the better chance of winning the $100 grand prize.
