The Madison Area Chamber of Commerce is inviting children to participate in a month long scavenger hunt to “Find Rosie the Rose City Reindeer” this holiday season.
Beginning Saturday, November 24, more than forty Chamber-member businesses will participate in this creative and fun activity to help highlight the holidays and all that is wonderful about shopping in Madison this season. This is a free event, open to the public and for children only.
How does it work?
Pick up a participation card at any one of the businesses involved in the “Find Rosie the Rose City Reindeer” scavenger hunt.
When you spot Rosie at any one of the businesses, collect a store stamp or signature on the card.
When at least 15 different store stamps/signatures are collected, bring the game card to Tons of Toys, 64 Main St. or The Madison Pharmacy, 66 Main St. where a special prize can be collected. Prizes are being donated by Tons of Toys.
When at least 25 store stamps/signatures are collected, bring the game card to Tons of Toys, 64 Main St. or The Madison Pharmacy, 66 Main St. where you will be entered into the Grand Prize Drawing! First place will receive a $100 Madison Chamber Gift Check, 2nd and 3rd place will each receive a $50 Madison Chamber Gift Check.
Watch the live feed of the Grand Prize drawing on the ILoveMadisonNJ Facebook page on Monday, December 17 at 4 p.m.
“Find Rosie the Rose City Reindeer” was introduced last year and its huge success has brought her back for another season,” said Chamber’s executive director Karen Giambra. “The program was designed to bring customers, both old and new, to our downtown business district while promoting our “Shop Local” message. It reinforces our shared sense of community and it’s a fun way to bring everyone together during the holiday season.”
