Winnemucca is 'charmed' to Welcome the Silver State International Radio

Time is running out! Let the Chamber office know if you'd like to particiapte in the Charm Scavanger Hunt by May 22nd please.

The Silver State International Rodeo will once again be held in Winnemucca in July (the 1st thru the 6th). If you remember last year, it was tons of fun...lots of people in town, and the 4th of July parade?

As part of their event this year, the SSIR Board has a promotion to get the adults of these kids out and about and shopping in town. It's a "Charm Bracelet Scavenger Hunt".

SSIR board is purchasing charms to give to you/your business if you want to be part of the event. At no cost to you--(they would be happy for a donation to the Senior Scholarship Fund)-- the charms are free to each establishement. During the week of July 1st thru the 5th, there will be people from the Rodeo event out and about town, looking for these charms--that could be in YOUR business if you choose to participate.

It would be similar to the Wine Walk, in that the SSIR would provide the participants/charm hunters, a map of the shops involved and you would have a sign to put in your window that says something like: I have SSIR CHARMS here! (all charms will be different in each business)

It's pretty much a win-win situation. No cost to you, and people in your store--lots of people in your store. Any business in Winnemucca can participate.

If you would like more details, please call the Chamber office at 623-2225 and we tell you all about it and can sign you up. The SSIR board needs to know by the end of May to ensure delivery of charms.

Honored for great customer service!

"She has the biggest most contagious smile," says Jaynes, "I can't say enough about her!"

Vanessa Coffee
