This Saturday, why not support your local and beloved small business stores wherever you live?
With online shopping and big-box stores grabbing a chunk of our local stores income, it's always wise to support our friends by shopping local.
For Saturday, Nov 25, shop downtown Montclair and park free for 2 hours at any meter. Then, stop by the Montclair Center welcome desk between 10 am and 5 pm, pick up a passport and guide, shop the boutiques and take some pictures with Santa and Mrs. Claus.
Shoppers who get their passports signed by participating boutiques can also enter a raffle to win gifts from Montclair Center shops.
“We are so happy that the Township is supporting Small Business Saturday with free parking,” said Israel Cronk, executive director of the Montclair Center BID. “Now, everyone come to downtown and show some love for our small businesses!”
The Montclair Center BID is directly responsible for the music performances, beautification projects including plants and decorations, banners, wayfinding signage and maintenance throughout the district.
Working with the Township, local utilities and services and its renowned Ambassador staff, it ensures that the downtown Montclair area is clean, bright and in excellent working order. By encouraging dynamic collaboration, the Montclair Center BID also creates exciting events for shoppers and tourists, marketing opportunities for retailers and restauranteurs, and actively seeks to improve the area for businesses and residents.
