CDG Announces Two Summer Retail Events

MOUNT VERNON – The Mount Vernon-Lisbon Community Development Group (CDG), a Main Street Iowa organization, is excited to announce two summer events organized by the CDG Retail Events Committee.

Hello Summer Shopping Kickoff on June 21
On Saturday, June 21, participating businesses will celebrate the start of summer by offering special promotions, treats, or unique reasons for shoppers to visit. Additionally, businesses will distribute punch cards to customers. For every $10 spent, customers will earn a punch on their card. Once the card is completely punched (10 punches), it can be exchanged at any participating business for a new card. All completed cards will be collected through the August event and entered into a drawing to win local gift certificates!

Mount Vernon-Lisbon Sidewalk Sales on August 9
On Saturday, August 9, participating businesses will be open from 9 AM to 4 PM, offering special product discounts. This event will take place rain or shine, with pleasant weather allowing the sidewalks to be filled with shopping specials! This will also be the final day to submit punch cards for a chance to win local gift certificates.
