The Buy Local Moscow Kickoff Party was a resounding success.
About 35 member displays filled the 1912 Center. We sold $324 worth of raffle
tickets for the forty or so donated raffle items. An estimated 400 people filled
the aisles.
The kickoff party really had a party atmosphere. People were smiling and talking and interested in what our member businesses had to offer. The variety of complementary food and beverages really sparked those good feelings.
Thanks to all who participated, with especial thanks to those who organized the event: Amy from the Co-op, Louise from Mikey's, John from Hyperspud, Jenny from the 1912 Center, Joan from Wild @ Art, Melissa from Rdesign, and community volunteers Caitlin Cole (who distributed flyers) and Joe Campbell (who set up the sound system and tables).
Let's keep up the momentum......BL
