Happy Thanksgiving & Small Biz Saturday!

View this email in your browser Dear Neighbor, I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy and healthy Thanksgiving. May your day be filled with warmth and moments of gratitude, surrounded by friends and loved ones - and good food. Small Business Saturday Small Business Saturday, which is November 29 this year, shines a spotlight on locally owned businesses. It encourages folks to shop small and support their communities during the busy holiday shopping season. By participating, you can find unique, personalized gifts while contributing to the local economy by keeping money within your community. Small Business Saturday fosters a sense of connection, strengthening neighborhoods and ensuring that local businesses, often the heart of their communities, continue to thrive. Shop small in our community and support small businesses. Click here to find participating businesses! And if you want to continue supporting Fairfield's small businesses, our annual winter Shop & Stroll event is coming on Thursday, December 11 from 6-9pm! This event is one of my favorites every year, as it shows off what makes our community so special. Click here to read more about it!
