The Sidney Area Chamber of Commerce we be hosting Sidney Sidewalk Sales on the third Friday of each month until October. Those dates are: July 16, Aug. 20 and Sept. 17. Participating businesses during Sidewalk Sales, will be extending their storefront on to the sidewalk and opening their shop from 7 a.m.-6 p.m.
Another of the summer shopping activities the chamber will be hosting ”Off The Clock” monthly events while weather permits. “Off The Clock” will fall on the last Thursday of each month: July 29, Aug. 26 and Sept. 30. “Off The Clock” will feature live music, extended shopping hours, family friendly activities, pop-up shops, special sales and food vendors. “Off the Clock” tickets will be sold and ticket holders will receive a meal and a VIP Shopping Experience. The VIP Shopping Experience is generally an exclusive sale and a treat/beverage or store “swag”. The plan is to close the first block of 2nd St. SE and hub most activities in that street and the city lot adjacent to it. The goal is to bring people to the storefronts and provide a nontraditional shopping experience for customers who may have various barriers to shopping local with the normal business hours. The time for the “Off The Clock” event will be 5-8 p.m.
Let the Sidney Area Chamber of Commerce know if you have any suggestions for either event as they welcome new ideas and effort to their trade and promotion committee.
