Sparta Area Chamber of Commerce Newsletter April | Page 4

UPDATES FROM THE CHAMBER Yes, it’s that time of year again! To enhance the look of the downtown area, we are again making plans to have Sparta Floral create the beautiful hanging baskets that we have all come to love and enjoy. In order to accomplish this task, we are again calling on you for donations to help with the cost of each basket. Please remember that besides the purchase of the flowers, your sponsorship pays for the baskets to be fertilized and watered regularly. The flowers add much to the appearance of our fine city and that your contribution is very much appreciated and needed to make the program sustainable. You may donate in the name of a loved one as a memorial or just because you love flowers! Please make checks payable to the Sparta Area Chamber of Commerce. Marketing in Action...New Rack Cards! The chamber team is always looking for ways to be a beneficial resource to the Sparta community. Recently we have created new rack cards that will be displayed throughout the community to inspire residents and tourists on all that Sparta has to offer! Check them out ...and maybe you’ll soon be planning a staycation for your family right here in Sparta. Or, if you’re anything like me, maybe you will finally get your sister to visit!
