Manzanita Cash Mob: Shopping to Help Others - Vacation Fun!
VACATIONERS LOVE MANZANITA
Those of you that follow along with Manzanita Beach Life know we’re all about our charming community. Because almost everything visitors love about Manzanita — the creative, laid back atmosphere — comes down to the community.
And many members of our small community are also small business owners or depend on those businesses for work.
AND NOW THOSE THAT LOVE MANZANITA HAVE A CHANCE TO HELP OUT — AND HAVE SOME FUN, TOO!
Most Oregonians know about Manzanita’s once in a lifetime tornado that visited Manzanita last October. You can check out our blog post for a refresher or to find out how you may help. You may even have attended our November Manzanita Cash Mob fundraiser to help out.
If you weren’t able to attend our November Cash Mob or help out, you have another chance! And for updates on businesses directly affected by the Manzanita Tornado, check out towards the end of this post.
Mark your calendars –
CASH MOB II, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18TH, 2017!
Mother nature recently delivered a one-two punch to Manzanita. First the 2016 Manzanita Tornado …
Then the 2017 snow!
FOR A COMMUNITY IN THE MIDST OF RECOVERING FROM ONE BIG SURPRISE, THE SECOND REALLY MADE THAT RECOVERY MORE DIFFICULT.
So what can we do to help?
Attend Cash Mob II, Saturday, February 18th, 2017!
Are you perhaps wondering “What if I don’t need anything from the local shops in Manzanita?”
Unfortunately, this may happen. What we ask is that if you attend a Manzanita Cash Mob II that you spend a minimum of $25 regardless. You could buy something for someone else. Or, even just buy a gift certificate for a later date.
Are there any incentives for shopping at the Manzanita Cash Mob II? First and foremost, you can expect the business owner’s deep appreciation!
But there are incentives to shopping during the Manzanita Cash Mob: First is that you can count on multiple local retail shops holding drawings with awesome prizes. Second, if you stop in at the visitor center and show $50 worth of receipts, you will get a raffle ticket to be entered in for some rocking prizes!
February 18th, between 11:00 am and 4:00 pm is your chance to shop, help others, have tons of fun.
