SHOP LOCAL!!

Hot Springs is a unique place to visit, and with plenty of local restaurants, events, and shops, there is something for everyone here. The Springs Magazine is the perfect resource to find local shops, restaurants, and even local events, especially in the November and December issues.

Small Business Saturday, November 25, is the perfect day for everyone to play a supporting role by giving back to all of the small business owners who support our local economy.

While this is a good thing to do every day, Small Business Saturday distinguishes a day to shop local, helping drive in shopper traffic and bring in more retail to the small business owners. We encourage you to shop small by visiting the stores and businesses in this magazine and eat big, dine local, by grabbing a bite at a local eatery.

Giving Tuesday, November 28, is held every year on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving and the Black Friday/Cyber Monday craze. Giving Tuesday inspires people to collaborate and give back to their community and the charities they support. It unifies corporations, charities, and small businesses all around the world by showing people that the world gets what it gives. Hot Springs is home to more than thirty non-profit charities that would gladly accept your donations on #GivingTuesday.

Great gift ideas are found throughout this issue. Enjoy reading about the small businesses and learn more about our community. And, please, give our merchants some holiday cheer for spending their advertising dollars small and local. Let them know you found them in The Springs Magazine. Happy Holidays from The Springs Magazine Team!
