Downtown Highland Park Alliance hosts Small Business Saturday

The Downtown Highland Park Alliance will kick off the holiday season with the Small Business Saturday: "We Love Downtown HP" Passport Event from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 24, in downtown Highland Park.

This event is intended to help leverage the strength of the Central Business District, celebrate small businesses, and encourage the community to support their growth.

Throughout the passport event, more than 40 participating businesses are offering prizes and incentives for shoppers that support the Small Business Saturday movement on Nov. 24.

To view an updated list of participating businesses and their giveaways, find the Downtown Highland Park Alliance on Facebook.

Pick up and drop-off a "We Love Downtown HP" Passport from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the official Alliance booth at Rock N Rags, 613 Central Ave. Collect stamps when visiting participating businesses in order to be entered into the giveaway. The more stamps participants receive, the better their chance to win.

To be eligible, participants must list their name, phone number and email and submit their completed passports to the official Alliance Booth by 2 p.m. The official winners will be selected at random by the Alliance through Facebook Live. Winners will be contacted the following week; one winner per prize.
