Hays Area Chamber of Commerce

The holiday shopping season is an exciting time of year and even the most loyal shoppers may need a boost of caffeine to help them through the early morning deals of Thanksgiving and Black Friday sales. To set a new tradition for this anticipated shopping event, the Hays Area Chamber of Commerce has partnered with the Downtown Hays Development Corp., Hays Convention and Visitors Bureau and United Way of Ellis County to offer “Holiday Cheer Stations.” Thanks to Prairie Fire for donating the coffee.

We hope the Hays community remembers to shop local and keep the cheer here!

Each of us want to say thank you for keeping the cheer here this holiday season by shopping local. This year, Holiday Cheer Stations will be set up in three different locations throughout Hays during Thanksgiving and Black Friday retail sales. All donations received will benefit the United Way.

The stations will serve free coffee, hot chocolate or tea to shoppers during the following times and locations:

• Thanksgiving Night from 7 – 9 PM at Walmart Supercenter
• Friday, Nov. 25 from 7 – 9 AM at Big Creek Crossing in the Center Court
• Friday, Nov. 25 from 10 – 11:30 AM at Downtown Hays Development (106 W. 12th)
