Eat.Shop.Live.Be.Local. New T-Shirts Celebrate Cornwall
November 8, 2017Cornwall Ontario – Now you can wear your support for the local economy.
New t-shirts have hit the streets celebrating living in Cornwall. Emblazoned with the slogan ‘Eat. Shop. Live. Be. Local.’, the shirts are meant to drive home the importance of being involved in your community.
“We sometimes take for granted just how fortunate we are to live in Cornwall, “ said Todd Lihou, Centretown Coordinator. “We have the convenience of having great restaurants and great shopping run by caring people who give back to the community in dozens of ways.”
Lezlie Strasser, executive manager with the Cornwall and Area Chamber of Commerce, echoed Lihou’ s sentiment.
“It’s a great example of the community pulling together to focus on the benefits of shopping local,” she said. “We are looking forward to the benefits of a successful holiday shopping season.”
The t-shirts are a quality cotton shirt and are available in a number of sizes, for men and women. The shirts were printed locally by Mike’s Printing and Apparel.
