2008 Find Your Independents Winner

For the past two weeks Lincolnton has been celebrating "Independents Days" to motivate consumers to support their community by shopping at locally owned, independent businesses. Many residents of Lincolnton celebrated Independents Days by participating in the Shop Local Challenge and the Find Your Independents Scavenger Hunt. The winner of the Find Your Independents Scavenger Hunt was randomly selected from all the completed game cards endorsed by the participating businesses.

The 2008 Find Your Independents winner is Jennifer Sinclair of Lincolnton. " I enjoyed the scavenger hunt a lot, I walked into businesses that I haven't been into before" said Sinclair.

Sinclair received a prize pack of items from Clark Tire and Auto Supply, Classy Consignments, Color Me Pretty, Heavenly Paws Pet Grooming, House of Trophies/Classic Art and Framing, Kate McCall, Merle Norman Cosmetic Studio and Southern Charm Wines.
