A special presentation was held Monday at Sheridan City Hall with Sheridan Mayor Rich Bridger, Sheridan Christmas Stroll Committee Chair Robby Smith and Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce CEO Teresa Detimore. The winning design for the 30th annual Christmas Stroll Button Design Contest was announced as Anwynn Fack, daughter of Travis and Morgan Fack. Sheridan County students in grades 1 through 6 were invited in the spring to submit designs to the Sheridan County Chamber’s Christmas Stroll Committee for the Stroll Button Design Contest. The committee selected the winning design based upon how well it reflects this year’s theme, “30 Years of Strolling.” Fack received a framed copy of her button design, the first button and $100 in Chamber Bucks. Her framed design will be on display at Main Frame, 17 E. Grinnell Plaza, during the holiday season.
Stroll buttons each have a unique number and are purchased by the public, who begin wearing them at the Christmas Stroll. While shopping locally during Christmas Stroll and through Christmas Eve, button wearers seek their matching button number at participating businesses. Those with matching numbers win a prize from the business valued at $50 or more. Stroll button purchasers are encouraged to continue wearing their Stroll buttons on Stroll Day and throughout the holiday shopping season for the Chamber’s “Get Caught Shopping” campaign. If caught shopping locally in Stroll participating businesses by Chamber elves while wearing their Stroll button, they can win Chamber Bucks in amounts from $25 to $200.
Stroll buttons will be available for purchase by the public beginning Saturday, November 1, at participating businesses. Buttons will also be available for purchase at the Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce, 54 South Main Street starting November 3. Stroll buttons have sold out in recent years so it is recommended to purchase them prior to Stroll day. Stroll buttons are once again $5 each.
This year’s Christmas Stroll will be held from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, November 28. Stroll button holders can begin checking for matching button numbers that morning. Main Street and Grinnell Plaza will be closed from 4 to 8 pm for hay wagon rides, marshmallow roasting, free food and beverages and more. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be visiting with children and available for photos at the WYO Theater from 11 am to 1 pm and 4:30 to 7:30 pm.
