THE CHAMBER ELVES ARE ON THE LOOSE!
This Halloween, the Battle Creek Area Chamber of Commerce team traded in our business attire for something a little more festive…
🎄 ELVES ON THE SHELF!🎄
That's right! Our mischievous Chamber elves escaped the shelf and hit the streets for our annual REVERSE TRICK-OR-TREATING ADVENTURE!
Instead of collecting candy, we delivered sweet treats, smiles, laughter, and a little holiday magic to our AMAZING member businesses! 💚❤️
But Kara, Beth and Trina, weren't just spreading Halloween cheer, we were on a MISSION to remind everyone that SHOPPING LOCAL IS THE GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING!
✨THE HOLIDAY MAGIC IS BACK!✨
Our Chamber Holiday Matching Gift Certificate Program returns Thanksgiving week with $30,000 in matching dollars to support our local businesses!
You spend $150 at Chamber Office …we match $150… YOU GET $300 TO SHOP LOCAL at 50+ local businesses
MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
Monday, November 23 | 4:30–6:00 PM

A HUGE thank you to our incredible Chamber members who welcomed our silly elves today! You make Battle Creek a wonderful place to LIVE, WORK, PLAY & SHOP!
Halloween may be all about the BOOS… but these elves are all about the LOCAL BUSINESS BOOST!
