Clinton Fall Craft Sale
The people who took advantage of the fourth annual Clinton Fall Craft Sale were not disappointed. They were able to find unique gift items for all ages.
Although the number of visitors to the sale was down this year, most vendors were happy with how the day turned out.
Personally, I was able to get a good start on my Christmas shopping, especially for family members in Ontario. They will be getting items from my neck of the woods. It is much more personal than going out and buying something in a big box store. They can get those things anywhere.
The Christmas Pledge
I received a message on Facebook that I want to pass along. It is a Christmas Pledge and it goes like this: “This Christmas I pledge to Shop local; Spend local; Eat local; Enjoy local and support the local businesses that support me and my community.”
If we all take this pledge we can help our local businesses and our communities. Every dollar that you spent locally benefits your community. Think about that before heading out of town to do your shopping.
Clinton Economic Development AGM
The Clinton & District Economic Development Society Annual General Meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 6 at 6:30 p.m. in the Clinton Memorial Hall.
