ONLY TWO DAYS LEFT!
If you haven't done so already, please be sure and drop your gift(s) off today at one of the drop off locations for the event on Sunday.

And don't forget to keep your "exchange ticket". You will have to have it on Sunday to receive a return gift.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

3 DAYS LEFT to drop your gifts off at one of the drop off locations.
There's still time, so please feel free to share and encourage your friends to join in on the fun.
🎁🙂🎄

Also, FYI. A few businesses have reached out and asked if it's okay to give a gift certificate to their business and do their gift as a business, as well as an individual. Of course you can, yes! It's a great way to advertise and possibly gain a new customer.

Happy Sunday!

We have heard a few comments from business owners and employees who have said they would like to participate in this but can't, due to the fact that they will be working during the hours of the gift exchange.
We certainly do not want anyone excluded that would like to participate in this event.
If you work in the Eureka Springs city limits and will be working during the gift exchange on Sunday the 19th but want to participate in the event, please go ahead and drop off your gift(s) at any of the drop off locations and then send us a message letting us know that you will be working and we will bring your gift directly to you.

If you are disabled, have no transportation, or any other circumstances beyond your control prevents you from dropping off a gift, please let us know and we will come and pick up your gift from you and deliver your exchange gift to you.

This is a community-wide event and we do not want to exclude ANYONE.

And just a reminder to those who plan to participate. There are 5 days left to take your gift(s) to any of the drop off locations.

Good afternoon everybody!
December 17th is coming up very quickly and will be here before we know it!
That is the cutoff date for dropping off your gift(s) for the community gift exchange.
The gifts are wrapped when they are dropped off so none of us know what's in them, but there have been a few people that just simply could not resist the urge to "spill the beans" and I can tell you that there are some really unique gifts that are being given.
If you have any questions you can call (479) 244-5157.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Just a reminder that although the actual gift exchange itself will take place on Sunday, December 19th, you may drop your gift(s) off at any of the four drop off locations NOW.

The drop-off locations began accepting gifts last Saturday and will accept them through Friday, December 17th.

People are getting excited and I'm happy to say that we are getting great participation so far.
We invite you to jump in and join us for this fun Community event.

Greetings everybody!

We are getting some really good questions from people about the event so I wanted to make a FAQ list and answer the ones I can.

I'm sure we will get more questions that would be beneficial to the community. I will post answers to those questions on this page as needed.

1. Is there a limit to how many gifts a person can give and receive?

Answer: No. A person may give as many gifts as they wish. Those giving gifts will receive one gift exchange ticket for each gift given.

2. Can my business participate?

Answer: Yes. When giving your gift, you may do so as an individual or a business.

3. Do I HAVE to be a resident of Eureka Springs?

Answer: No. The main purpose of the event is to allow the community to reconnect on a social level by having fun and doing a random act of kindness without the worry of socializing in large groups.
However, ANYONE from ANYWHERE may participate.
In fact, we encourage everyone to do so.

4. Can we give homemade food items?

Answer: Due to safety and health issues, we ask that no homemade treats be given. However, unopened store bought goodies are allowed.
