Whether you stay open, sell tickets at your business or buy a sponsorship ad, we encourage everyone to participate...thank you in advance for your support!
And to connect this great event to ongoing PR and business district development, please participate in the
State Street Blues Stroll Follow the Band program. MBA, Music Series State Street Blues Stroll organizers & merchants are working together to motivate event-goers to dine in our restaurants, shop in our unique stores & stroll up & down State Street in the weeks after the Blues Stroll.
Merchant

Merchants can make any offer they want... the only restriction in place is that discounts are available for 3 weeks after the event, from June 12th 2011 to June 30th 2011. The promotion is explained to event goers at the time their Blues Stroll ticket is issued and
will be advertised in the Blues Stroll program, Blues Stroll and VisitMediaPa websites,
Facebook, Twitter and in an eblast. For questions or getting listed, please contact Monica Schramm at local home + gifts (610-566-5661, monica@localhomeandgifts.com).
