Chamber to Unveil 2024 Christmas Stroll Button Design and Recognize Student Designer

Share!

The winning design for the 29th Annual Sheridan Christmas Stroll Button Design Contest will be unveiled Monday, Oct. 21, 2024, at 4 p.m. during a special presentation by Sheridan Mayor Rich Bridger, Sheridan Christmas Stroll Committee Chair Robby Smith and Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce Program Development Director Teresa Detimore at City Hall.

The student designer will also be recognized and will receive a framed copy of his or her design, the first button and $100 in Chamber Bucks.

Sheridan County students in Grades 1 through 6 were invited in the spring to submit designs to the Sheridan County Chamber’s Christmas Stroll Committee for the Stroll Button Design Contest. The committee selected the winning design based upon how well it reflects this year’s theme, “Cowboy Christmas Stroll.”

Stroll buttons each have a unique number and are purchased by the public, who begin wearing them during the Christmas Stroll. While shopping locally during Christmas Stroll and through Christmas Eve, button wearers seek their matching button number at participating businesses. Those with matching numbers win a prize from the business valued at $50 or more.

Stroll button purchasers are encouraged to continue wearing their Stroll buttons on Stroll Day and throughout the holiday shopping season for the Chamber’s “Get Caught Shopping” campaign. If caught shopping locally in participating businesses by Chamber elves while wearing their Stroll button, they can win Chamber Bucks in amounts from $25 to $200.

Stroll buttons will be delivered to participating businesses on Friday, Nov. 1, and will be available for purchase by the public. Buttons will also be available for purchase at the Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce, 54 S. Main St. starting Nov. 1. Cost remains $5 each. Stroll buttons have sold out in recent years so it is recommended to purchase them prior to Stroll day.

This year’s Christmas Stroll will be held from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 29, 2024. Stroll button holders can begin checking for matching button numbers that morning. Main Street and Grinnell Plaza will be closed from 4 to 8 p.m. for hay wagon rides, marshmallow roasting, free food and beverages and more. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be visiting with children and available for photos at the WYO Theater from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Registrations for businesses to participate in this year’s Christmas Stroll are due by Tuesday, Oct. 22. Registration can be completed online at www.sheridanwyomingchamber.org.
