Christmas in July Business Sign-Up

If you’d like to be a part of Christmas in July in Downtown Manitowoc, we’d love to hear from you! This year’s event runs from July 17th through the 25th.

Participating businesses are asked to donate either a gift certificate or merchandise valued at $25 or more. These donations are assembled into prize baskets and given to winners drawn at random and announced at the end of the week during a closing reception at the Aluminum Tree Exhibition on July 25th. The entrants in the prize drawing will have needed to complete a scavenger hunt, collecting clues that are located in each of the participating business locations.

Participating businesses may also choose to host a vintage Christmas display comprised of one or several aluminum trees, vintage illuminated blo-molds, or some combination thereof.

You will be assigned a clue during setup week, during which we will come to your location, set up any display items and collect your donation. This year, setup will begin on July 13th, and culminate of the 17th. The contest is open from July 17-25th.

You may also choose to offer sales or specials (if they are Christmas or holiday themed, all the better!), though this is not required, and completely at your discretion.

If you have any questions regarding participation, the contest, setup, etc. feel free to contact us at info@evergleams.org.
