SUMMARY:Wilton Winter Fest
DESCRIPTION:In past years\, the Chamber of Commerce has hosted the Winter Carnival in January but much like other events in 2020\, it was cancelled due to COVID. The event which was held the Sunday before the Superbowl featured winter themed carnival games\, animal rides for the kids\, magicians\, Disney character meet and greets\, food trucks\, beverage tastings\, vendor booths\, and an ice carving demo at the gazebo. It is a fun day for the whole family and a great way for residents to explore and experience Wilton Center. \nIn the absence of the carnival this year\, the Wilton Chamber of Commerce will be presenting a promotional event that will spotlight our local businesses.  Local establishments will be decorating their store fronts with a “Winter Fest” or “Wilton Warriors” theme of blue and white from Feb. 1st-13th. During this time\, whenever a shopper purchases a gift card from participating retailers or restaurants\, the Chamber of Commerce is offering a Chamber of Commerce gift certificate worth 20% of the value of the gift certificate purchased! \nHere are the guidelines: \n\nGift certificate from participating business must be purchased between Feb. 1-13\, 2021.\nProof of purchase with date must be submitted via email to info@wiltonchamber.com\nWilton Chamber of Commerce bonus gift certificate will be mailed to purchaser.\nBonus gift certificate will be valid between Feb. 14th – March 31st\, 2021.\n\nWe hope this bonus gift certificate incentive will create more revenue for our local businesses and encourage shopping and dining during the winter months. Please support the event and our businesses early as the total program match will be capped at $2000. \nProgram match update: Friday February 12\, 2021 – $1\,233 bonus gift certificates have been redeemed. \nOn Saturday Feb.13th\, ice sculptures will be dotted around the Gazebo and between 12:00-2:00 pm a socially distant meet and greet with our favorite snowman\, Olaf as we have done in the past to close out the Winterfest theme.
