#HintonFirst Bucks
The Hinton Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Town of Hinton, has created a local shopping program to encourage spending in the community through a local currency called #HintonFirst Bucks.
Who are these dollars for?
The idea behind #HintonFirst Bucks is that anyone can purchase and use them. Here are some examples:
- Employers can use these #HintonFirst bucks on their employees for Service Awards, seasonal bonuses, or other recognition awards.
- Every day, citizens can use these gifts to give to their friends and family or purchase them for themselves to use at a future date to support a local business.
How to take part
If your business is interested in participating in the #HintonFirst Bucks program, please contact the Chamber by calling 780.865.2777 or emailing info@hintonchamber.com.
