Submitted by the Bedford Chamber of Commerce
The Bedford Chamber of Commerce is hosting its first “Say Goodbye to Winter Event” beginning on Friday, April 10 and concluding on Monday, April 13. It’s timed to coincide with Bedford’s annual ‘rite of spring’ – the Bedford Minuteman Pole Capping celebration on Saturday, April 11, when the parade steps off from Bedford Common and marches along The Great Road to Willson Park.
It’s been a tough winter with lots of snow and cold. The average temperature in Bedford for February was colder than Nome, Alaska. After all that weather, it’s time to come out of hibernation and celebrate the end of winter. Splash into spring with your own personal passport, and enter our ultimate drawing to win this season’s Basket of Bedford’s Finest Treats.
Download your passport at www.bedfordchamber.org or scan the QR code with your smart phone for a map.
Bedford businesses are offering special spring-themed promotions along with an adventure where you can win special prizes and gift baskets. It is a fun and free way to explore local businesses in Bedford with a chance to win gifts from participating businesses.
You can download your passports at www.bedfordchamber.org or pick one up at any of the participating businesses listed at the end of this story. Bring your passports to each of the participating businesses to be stamped. Once you’ve got all your stamps, turn in your passport in at any participating business before 6 pm on Monday, April 13.
Passports with the most stamps will be entered into a drawing for a giant prize basket containing great Bedford gifts — a floral arrangement gift certificate from Bedford Florists – good for one arrangement each month for a year, and gift certificates from businesses like Great Road Gallery, Bedford Jeweler, and more!
Participating Bedford businesses will be offering Spring-themed merchandise and promotions along with various in-store activities. Shoppers will enjoy fresh spring inspiration, treats and interesting promotions throughout Bedford businesses.
