Today's Holiday Shopping Shuttle was a HUGE hit with shoppers, business owners and the media! KRVC also released a Holiday Shopping Guide. The guide is on our publications page and the media coverage including the NY 1 Clip can be found on our clips page.
It was a great community day of raffles, food tasting, wine tasting, book reading, game playing, art, fashion, great deals on jewelry, computers, gifts and more!! Today, at an event organized by the KRVC, a Community Holiday Shopping Guide was released. This first edition of the guide was sponsored by State Farm Insurance and Chase Bank. The release event, which included a Holiday Shopping Shuttle Bus donated by Exec-You-Van, was held at Staples, located at 5680 Broadway, and covered by the media.
The Holiday Shopping Guide includes a listing of clothing, jewelry, furniture, gift stores and more in the neighborhoods of Kingsbridge, Kingsbridge Heights, Marble Hill, Riverdale, Van Cortlandt and Woodlawn.
The event’s highlight was Exec-You-Van’s Holiday Shopping Shuttle Bus which shoppers could board and take to stores in the Kingsbridge and Riverdale shopping areas. Several businesses participated in the event as “Shuttle Hot Stops.” For instance, Staples provided parking for the bus riders, served refreshments and promoted great holiday specials; Leila’s Chocolates offered chocolate tasting; Sotheby’s Realty, Susan Goldy Realty and Cora’s Hardware held raffles; John’s Botany Bay offered Holiday Decorating Tips; The Page Turner and Someplace Special had storytelling, game playing and more for the kids; Brown’s Jewelers had a great Holiday Sale; Skyview Liquors offered wine tasting; Elisa Contemporary Art held a Meet the Artist Event; Capipets offered dog makeovers; Lloyd’s Carrot Cake offered food tasting and more!!
