[November 16, 2012]
Main Street Lincoln invites
the public to enjoy historic downtown Lincoln throughout the holiday season.
With the height of the holiday season fast approaching, downtown businesses
are readying for shoppers. |
Nov. 24 is nationally recognized as
Small Business Saturday. This event falls between Black Friday and
Cyber Monday and is dedicated to supporting small business in our
communities. Shoppers are encouraged to continue their power
shopping of Black Friday in downtown Lincoln, finding specials and
bargains throughout.
On Nov 29, Main Street Lincoln and
the city of Lincoln co-sponsor the annual Christmas parade. This
year's theme is "Sending Holiday Greetings to Your Loved Ones" to
honor the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln post office. Entries are
being accepted through Nov. 23. The parade will kick off at 5:30
p.m. and take the same route as previous years. Prizes in many
categories will be given. Following the parade, the Oasis Senior
Center will host a chili and soup supper, along with craft items
available, and Mr. Claus will be on hand for the children.
Throughout December, historic
downtown Lincoln will be alive with the hustle and bustle of
shopping and holiday cheer. Santa will make appearances throughout
downtown Dec. 8, 15 and 22, with exact locations to be announced
soon. Shoppers can enjoy the convenience and pride of shopping
locally.
