The Emmaus Main Street Partners care deeply about thriving communities and believes small businesses are at the core of every thriving neighborhood. To celebrate and promote these local icons, we host a variety of activities on Small Business Saturday® - the Saturday after Thanksgiving - to encourage people to Shop Small and bring more holiday shopping to small businesses. This year we'll be celebrating Small Business Saturday on Saturday November 27, 2021. We encourage any business and organization to get involved whether you're a member or not. Check out what we're doing in the graphic and text below!
Please note: some businesses' hours are subject to change due to the holidays and staffing challenges. 
Thank you for your continued patience.

Businesses!

1. Email AshleyL@LehighValleyChamber.org with whatever deal, promotion, event, etc. that you'll be offering on Small Business Saturday. EMSP will put together a booklet of all this information along with a map that we'll give out to the public and share online. 

​2. Encourage shoppers to take a picture of theirs receipts from your business and send to 801- 4EMMAUS (801-436-6287) to be entered to win a variety of prizes from local businesses starting 11/27 running through 12/22! Consider donating an item that will be used as a prize for shoppers who participate so they can be awarded for shopping local and shopping small.

Resources to Help Make Your Own Video

We want to feature as many small businesses and local organizations as we can but aren't able to dedicate time and energy to creating videos for the 300+ in Emmaus Borough. Help us help you by making your own Small Business Saturday video. Use the Video Tips depending whether you're hoping to post to Instagram or Facebook and base your video off the prompt questions in the second PDF below.

When you have your video created, post it on your social media page(s) but also email it to AshleyL@LehighValleyChamber.org so Emmaus Main Street Partners can share it as well!
