ITS TIME FOR LADIES' DAY OUT!
Thursday, November 17th, 10am-8pm


How does Ladies' Day Out Work?
To encourage shoppers to spend their money in Calumet, participating businesses each donate 1 item of $25 value or greater to a gift basket. This basket is given away in a drawing. Attendees are entered in the drawing by filling out a Ladies' Day Out Punch Card. In order to be eligible an attendee must visit one business in each district (last year there were 7, but this will depend on business participation) from 10am-8 pm on Thursday, November 17th and then turn their card in at any participating business. At the end of the night we collect all the cards and draw a winner! 

Main Street Calumet attracts shoppers to the event with print, radio and social media advertising.

Main Street Calumet will host Ladies' Day Out to encourage shoppers to come to Calumet and Laurium! Here's all the details!
