From the City

Keep the Cheer Here – Shop Locally!(0)

It is not the Canon City Home Depot who sponsored this year’s Parade of Lights. Downtown merchants of Colorado Springs are not paying for Santa to be available to delight young children on F Street during the holiday season. The businesses and individuals who sponsor and actively support these types of events are our very own local merchants in Salida. By supporting our local merchants, we foster community through the events and activities they support.
