Good Evening All,
This is a reminder that we have our end of Summer BD Beats Finale Street Event this coming Saturday, Sept. 21.
I've listed all of the details again below and I'm hoping that you will take advantage of the sidewalk sale permit that we've taken out and activate in front of your business. You can sell, sample, and promote - whatever works for each of you.
AND I'm really hoping that you can promote the event and especially the Shop & Win Contest on your social media platforms. Thank you to those who have already posted on their ig stories. The challenge with ig stories is that the information disappears after a short time so...... if you could post on your main reel that would be great. You can personalize the contest post by Inviting your customers to pop by your business this Saturday and enter the contest to win some pretty amazing prizes.
Attached are the social media files that we've created to make it easy for you to post. Please note there is one file just for the contest.
Contest & Event Posters - if you haven't received a poster please let me know and we will drop by your business.
Once again here are the details for this Saturday:
- BD Beats Finale: So Long Summer
- Saturday, September 21 - last day of summer
- Full day/evening sidewalk sale available to all members. We hope that as many of you as possible will take advantage of this opportunity and set up in front of your business. For our restaurants and food shops you can set up and sell - the same for all of our retailers.
- We will be running a Shop And Win Contest throughout the day. Your customers can either send us a photo of their receipt or they can post a Google review about your business and send us a copy. We have some amazing prizes - attached please see the poster for full details on this contest.
- For the kids we will have strolling Super Heroes - Deadpool, Batman and Wonder Woman, balloon twisters, face painting and strolling stilt walkers.
- We will have BD Beats bands playing in the courtyard of the Carrot Common from 11am to 1pm; in our parkette between Bowden and Hampton from 1pm to 4pm; in our parkette between Ellerbeck and Broadview from 1pm to 4pm and on Broadview in front of Der Dietemann Antiques from 11am to 2pm.
- At noon under the marquee of the Danforth Music Hall we will be presenting a special musical performance. We have been gifted an original piece of music that was created in the 1950's for the then Danforth Businessmen's Association. At the time it was their theme song and played at their events. We have assembled some of our BD Beats musicians and they have been rehearsing the music and will be performing it at noon on the 21st! It would be wonderful if you're able to pop out of your business for a few minutes to join us at noon.
Susan
