Center City Discount Cards will be made and distributed in December 2012 for use in the 2013 calendar year.

These cards will work much like the “Bulldog Cards” or “Red Devil Cards” from schools. Central Business Districts can choose to participate in this card by providing a discount for the 2013 calendar year for card holders.

Center City Development Corporation will pay for the design and production of the cards. The only cost to business owners is the discount offered. Proceeds from these cards will be used for combined Central Business District marketing, promotions, events, and materials.

If your business has not yet provided a discount and would still like to be on the discount card, please contact Kaitlin at [email protected] with your business name, point of contact, promotion/discount offered, and a digital file of your business’s logo.

Please join The Secret Ingredient for their 7th Annual Butterfly Release on Friday, September 7 at 11:00 am outside of their store.

The Butterfly Release is a fundraising activity to benefit the Cope Environmental Center, a non-for-profit organization helping our community understand environmental sustainability. You may purchase a butterfly with a $20 donation, which will be a total donation to the Cope Environmental Center.

This is also a unique opportunity to remember and honor a special person in your life who has made a positive impact through nurturing, mentoring, or caring. With each $20 donation you will receive one butterfly for a person who has made a difference in your life.

On Friday, September 7 at 11:00 am, the butterflies will be released at a ceremony honoring these

important people. Your honoree’s name will then be displayed in the window of The Secret Ingredient for three weeks.

Refreshments will follow for those in attendance. Please join The Secret Ingredient for their 7th Annual Fundraiser.

Please contact The Secret Ingredient at (765) 966-0990 for more information.
