Harlem Holiday Lights 2013!!

2013's Harlem Holiday Lighting program is officially a wrap, and thanks to all your support, it was our best lighting event yet! This year, businesses in the West 125 Merchants' Alliance were very involved in making the lighting extremely special and drawing massive crowds to 125th Street all the way to the Hudson River.

Several West 125 businesses drew customers to their stores by offering unique and exciting promotions:
Amalgamated Bank: Holiday Food Drive and special incentives for opening an account
Checkers: Raffle-- each entry gets free order of new mozzarella sticks with purchase; winner eats free for a month
Duane Reade: A brown bag event with health-related gifts and free blood pressure test for everyone
ECDO: Table outside with brochures and handouts sharing the free services offered by ECDO’s Community Partnership Center
Levels: Photos with Santa Claus
Rite Check: Free activation of Green Dot Cards

The next meeting of the West 125 Merchants' Alliance will be on Tuesday, January 21st, 2014. More information to follow.
