Event Description:
We're excited to announce our next shopping event: Spring Shop & Stroll! The event will take place on Thursday, April 27th.
Participating shops in downtown Fairfield will stay open late and will offer patrons an assortment of complimentary hors d’oeuvres and seasonal refreshments from 5-9 PM. Local restaurants will be offering dinner or drink specials throughout the evening.
This year local merchants are partnering with Operation Hope, a community non-profit organization that provides a shelter, food pantry, affordable housing and other services to those struggling with homelessness and food insecurity. Participating merchants will be collecting non-perishable and monetary donations and making donations of their own to support Operation Hope’s critical, life-sustaining work.
Shoppers can also enter a special drawing at participating downtown stores for a chance to win a Fairfield shopping spree and other great prizes. No purchase is necessary to enter the drawing.
Beverly Balaz, Executive Director of the Chamber of Commerce added, “The Chamber of Commerce is happy to be partnering with the Town on this event as it provides our merchants another opportunity to open their doors to the community, meet new customers from surrounding towns and provide a wonderful shopping experience!” “At the same time, we hope the event helps raise awareness and funds for the important work that Operation Hope is doing to support those in need, “ she added.
The public is invited to visit the event website at www.fairfieldct.org/shopnstroll for further information on participating retailers, restaurants and special offers.
