Coastal Carolina Artists & Crafters Guild have discovered a way to lend a hand to local shops that support the area’s creative talent.
There are a number of small, privately owned businesses within driving distance from downtown Jacksonville that carry unique and handcrafted items. To tantalize customers to discover each of these shops the CCAC Guild has created a “Shop Hop” scavenger hunt kit.
During the month of February, “Shop Hoppers” will enjoy competing for prizes as they have their scavenger hunt map marked each time they visit a new shop. Those contestants whose maps are marked by every shop will be eligible to win a $300 cash grand prize. Witty contestants who collect all pieces of the puzzle and identify each puzzle item will be eligible to win one of five $10 gift certificates redeemable at any booth at the Spring Craft Fair next May. Cost of a Shop Hop package is $5. “Shop Hop” kits afford the community the opportunity to visit local shops supporting the area’s creative talent.
The SHOP HOP kits are available at some shops located in downtown Swansboro and at A Crafters Dream in Jacksonville.
Vickie's shop, A Crafters Dream, is open until 6pm Monday thru Saturday, located at 233J Western Blvd between the Pet Supply/ Veterinarian Hospital and Onslow Audio. Vickie's phone is 910-353-2714.
Stop by and pick up a SHOP HOP kit for yourself and one for that person that likes to discover shops off the beaten path.
