Sponsoring Some Holiday Fun

Christmas traditions are a big part of what makes the holiday season so comforting. The feeling of familiarity mixed with anticipation while surrounded by the people we care about. This year marks the 4th year of the Deer Park Gazette’s Christmas Coloring Contest.

Sponsors make the coloring contest happen each year. Your business name can be right there on the pages your customers will spend hours focusing on, and your products and gift cards will be placed in the winner’s gift baskets to bring new customers to your store.

Prizes

There will be three divisions for different ages: Kids, Tween/Teens, and Adults, and the winner of each category will receive a gift basket loaded with local goodies. So not only will your business name be featured in the Gazette two months in a row, but excited winners will take your products home to “ooh” and “ahh” over with family and friends!

How to Contribute & Sponsor

To contribute prizes and sponsor use the form on our website at: DPGazette.com/christmascoloring
