Join us for the first-ever Downtown Small Biz Crawl during National Small Business Month: an evening of shopping, dining, and celebrating the local businesses that make downtown Owensboro shine! Whether you’re discovering a new favorite spot or visiting a familiar favorite, this event is your chance to explore downtown like never before.
Enjoy extended hours, exclusive deals, pop-up shops, live entertainment, and a chance to win cash prizes when you shop small and support local.
How to Enter the Prize Drawing:
Save your receipts from participating businesses and bring them to the Hampton Inn Riverfront any time on May 22 or by 10 a.m. on Friday, May 23.
Every receipt will count as an entry to win one of five $100 prizes or the $500 grand prize!
Winners will be announced live on social media the following day.
