If your path takes you through Downtown Hope, you will see multiple trees of Be the Light, sponsored by River Valley Tractor, have begun popping up and adorning the light poles.  These trees will be an addition to the Christmas décor in Downtown Hope throughout November and December.  

Participating businesses will decorate their windows in hopes to be one of the top three winners chosen by our Window Decorating Contest Sponsor, First National Bank of Tom Bean.  There is still time to register by contacting the Chamber Office.

The Chamber is excited to announce A Storybook Bingo, with presenting sponsor SWARK.Today, this will be a fun way to make your way around downtown, visit the local shops and to get your name entered in a drawing for an amazing prize package.  More details to come, don’t miss this one!!  

On Thursday, November 16th from 5:00pm-7:30pm there will be shopping opportunities galore with specials and discounts you don’t want to miss, not to mention the refreshments, giveaways, door prizes and dinning.  A huge thank you to McDonalds for sponsoring this year’s carriage rides that will take place downtown.  Other attractions will include ice skating at The HUB, hot chocolate bars, a visit with the Grinch at the HPS Administration Building, the dancers of Danctastics performing at the depot at 6:00pm, and MUCH MUCH MORE!
