2021 Sheridan Christmas Stroll Button Design Contest winner Harper Jacobson (center) with Sheridan Mayor Rich Bridger (left) and Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce CEO Dixie Johnson (right).
The winning design for the 26th Annual
Sheridan Christmas Stroll Button Design Contest was unveiled Tuesday, Oct. 26,
2021, during a special presentation by Sheridan Mayor Rich Bridger and Sheridan
County Chamber of Commerce CEO Dixie Johnson at City Hall.
Harper Jacobson, a sixth-grade student
at Sheridan Junior High and daughter of Arik and Jeriann Jacobson, created the
winning design. 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, “Gingerbread
Stroll.”
Harper received a framed copy of her
button design, the first button and $100 in Chamber Bucks.
2021 Christmas Stroll Button
Stroll buttons each have a unique
number and are purchased by the public, who begin wearing them at the Christmas
Stroll. While shopping locally during Christmas Stroll and through Christmas
Eve, button wearers look in participating businesses for the number that
matches their Stroll Button. 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
$250.
Stroll buttons will be available for
purchase by the public the first week of November at the Sheridan County
Chamber of Commerce, 24 S. Main St., and at participating businesses. Cost
remains $5 each.
This year’s Christmas Stroll will be
held from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 26. 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, giveaways and more.
