PERRYVILLE -- The Chamber is once again offering "drive - thru" holiday park displays to be reserved at the City Park.  This will be a great place to take the family while viewing holiday lights.  We invite your business to set-up a holiday display at the Perryville City Park for a fee of only $60.00.  Help decorate the Perryville City Park this holiday season while promoting your business or loved one with your very own lighted display!  There are only a few spots left so call us today! 

Please join us for Holiday Lighting at the City Park on Sunday, November 29th - I have attached a schedule of events for your review.  If you would be kind enough to print out the flyer and post it at your business, it would be greatly appreciated.

The Perryville Area of Commerce is continually looking for ways to increase the number of dollars spent locally and to further benefit our valued member businesses.  That is why the Chamber implemented the Chamber Bucks program in 2005.  We sell an average of $55,000 in Chamber Bucks each year - that is money that stays in Perryville/Perry County!

The Chamber Bucks program is an easy gift certificate program that allows us to offer versatile gift checks redeemable at any participating Chamber member. A Chamber Bucks certificate makes a wonderful gift for the holidays, birthdays, weddings, retirements, graduations, employee bonuses or incentives. The Chamber Bucks certificate can be purchased at the Chamber office and will include a list of participating Chamber members.   With over 50 locations to choose from to redeem your Chamber Bucks, this makes the perfect holiday gift.  If you would like more details on the Chamber Bucks program, please contact me at the Chamber office.
