Downtown Augusta merchants are stuck in the middle of a construction bottleneck.
Destination Augusta creatives are trying to spur business with an idea shoppers may stay for.
There’s a potential payoff for residents to work around the various streetscape projects. During the rest of September, October, November, and December, a different shopper will win an Augusta Staycation Package that includes a local hotel stay and different restaurant and entertainment experiences.
September’s prize pack includes a (2) night stay at the Partridge Inn, concert tickets to see comedian Martin Lawrence at the Bell, plus gift cards at New Moon Café, Laziza and the Book Tavern.
There are two ways to qualify to enter. Submit proof of (2) qualifying purchases at two downtown businesses through an online portal at www.visitaugusta.com or in person at Augusta & Co. at 1010 Broad Street.
You can enter as much as once daily with no purchase necessary. If your entries aren’t selected one month, they transfer to the next month. Entrants who qualify may win only one Augusta Staycation Package.
“Downtown Augusta is in an exciting time of revitalization, and supporting the businesses that make our downtown special is more important than ever,” said Bennish Brown, president and CEO of Destination Augusta. “This giveaway is a fun way for our community to come together, shop local, and experience all that downtown has to offer. Every visit and purchase helps build momentum for what’s next.”
