ADDA to sponsor Hole-in-One Days!
The Augusta National won’t be the only place you will find golfers during Masters Week.
Carla Cloud, executive director of the Aiken Downtown Development Association, said downtown retailers are hoping to bring the excitement of Masters Week downtown April 6-11 with an event called “Hole-in-One Days.”
The event is aimed to draw shoppers in by bringing the week’s golfing theme downtown.
Several stores will have putting greens set up for shoppers to try their hand at making a hole-in-one. The reward: discounts or gifts, according to Cloud.
“We realized that not everyone has an opportunity to attend the Masters Tournament. And we know there are a lot of wives who are looking for something to do while ‘hubby’ is on the golf course. So we decided to offer some fun alternatives for everyone,” Cloud said in a release.
Shoppers at Plum Pudding will qualify for free shipping with a hole-in-one shot, while Carriage House Inn will offer customers a taste of “Southern goodies.”
Shoppers at Chris’ Camera Center will be eligible to win a free 8-by-10 collage with up to 15 pictures.
Several stores will also be tax-free during the week. Signs will be placed outside those stores so that they are easily identified by shoppers.
On Thursday, April 9, the ADDA will hold its quarterly Downtown After Six event; this one will be called “Par-Tee in Downtown Aiken.”
During “Par-Tee,” shops will stay open late, and entertainers will perform throughout downtown beginning at 6 p.m.
A complete list of participating businesses, their incentives and a schedule of events can be viewed at a special website which has been constructed for the week – aikendayout.com.
