Outlets at Vicksburg would like to thank everyone for making the 7th Annual Shopping Extravaganza a huge success. The support of the community truly enabled us to host this event, and helped participants “shop for a cause.” This year, we are able to donate more than $17,000 for our partnering non-profit organizations: Junior Auxiliary of Vicksburg and the HCC Vicksburg DECA chapter.
We sincerely appreciate the support of our sponsors: Blackburn Nissan, Vicksburg Convention & Visitors Bureau, Weight Watchers, Estates by Cheryl, River Region Healthy Woman, Mary Kay by Christina Pond, Rodan & Fields, New Health Chiropractic Center, Signs First and Hitch Couture. We want to give a great big thank you to Shonna’s Nails & More for their spa and salon services. Special thank you to our Taste of Vicksburg sponsors: Ameristar Casino, Roca Restaurant and Bar, 10 South, Billy’s Italian Restaurant, Southern Sisters, Goldie’s Trail Bar-B-Que, Bumpers Drive In, T’Beaux’s, Rowdy’s Family Restaurant, McAlister’s Deli, Chick-fil-A, and The Wine House. Your help and contributions were greatly appreciated by the staff and participants of the event.
Also, thank you to Vicksburg YMCA CrossFit for providing free workout clinics and to our prize and product sponsors: Diamond Jacks Casino and McDonald’s. Thank you to Mike and Geri Weiland for donating four New Orleans Saints tickets to be raffled off at the event. A big thank you to everyone who volunteered their time Saturday to work for a great cause, especially to the volunteers of Americorps NCCC.
We also want to thank Donna Cook, DECA coordinator, for her tremendous effort in helping her students achieve their goal with ticket sales. Thank you to Lindsay Mixon, Junior Auxiliary Shopping Extravaganza chair, for leading the volunteer effort among JA members. Their help and support added tremendously to the event.
We want to especially thank all of our stores. Without our stores and special efforts by store managers, this event would not be the success that it was. Our shoppers enjoyed special discounts at our stores and purchased raffle tickets for chances to win store gift cards and other prizes. And lastly, a special thank you to our staff, who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to pull off a successful event.
Outlets at Vicksburg appreciates our shoppers and their support to DECA, Junior Auxiliary of Vicksburg and our community. Happy Shopping!
