Holidays The holiday season will look as different as‌ well the rest of the year has looked! But here in the Old Town Boutique District our business owners are working hard to bring you the safest, most unique and most convenient holiday shopping experience! We are kicking off the holiday season on Plaid Friday! But that does not mean you can’t start shopping earlier for unique gifts for everyone on your list. Be sure to make time for self-care too this holiday season! Book an appointment or class at one of our many fabulous salons & fitness centers! This year more than ever it is so important to shop local this holiday season. When you shop local you are putting your dollars back into your local economy. On behalf of all of the business owners in the Old Town Boutique District, we thank you for your support!
warmly
Megan Podolsky, OTBD President, and the 2020 OTBD Board
