Merchants hold holiday window display contest

This upcoming holiday shopping season, the merchants of downtown Beaufort in conjunction with Main Street Beaufort, USA, are pleased to announce a Window and Storefront Decorating Contest. The public is invited and encouraged to stroll through downtown every Tuesday from 4 to 6 p.m. enjoying Beaufort’s historic buildings in holiday dress and vote for their favorite festive storefront or window from Tuesday, November 20, through Tuesday, December 11.
Participating businesses will celebrate the season by offering promotions, discounts, specials, tastings and more. Also on hand will be strolling carolers, a barbershop quartet, and Santa himself.
The holiday event is also a Scavenger Hunt with each window having a hidden item for the public to find and add to their voting ballot; Downtown Beaufort Gift Baskets are being awarded to several of the entrants. Ballots and ballot boxes will be located throughout downtown businesses, banks, and at Main Street Beaufort USA’s West Street Extension office.
