Shop Local for a chance to win Cash

The Rabun County Chamber of Commerce invites the community to shop local for a chance to win some cash.  This is an effort to encourage residents and visitors alike to support local small businesses, explains Rabun County Chamber of Commerce President Juanita Shope.  “When you shop at a locally-owned small business in Rabun County, such as a restaurant, retail store, gift shop, repair shop or service business, through May 31, 2020, save your receipt.  Then write your name and telephone number on it and use your cell phone to take a picture of it. Submit as many separate receipts as you like. Photos of receipts may be emailed to [email protected], or you can text your photo to 706-490-2260.”  Only receipts dated May 14, through June 1, 2020, will be accepted.  All of the receipts will be entered into a drawing to be held on June 1, where two lucky winners will be chosen at random to receive $100.  This contest is designed to encourage residents to support Rabun County businesses as they continue to grapple with the national health emergency caused by COVID-19.
