Merchants sweet on chocolate tour idea
Imaginations are running wild as merchants in downtown Broken Arrow prepare to host a couple of busloads of tourists.
A first-time event, billed as a chocolate tour, will bring around 45 people on each of two buses to Main Street in early February. One will arrive at 10:15 a.m. Feb. 4; the other the same time on Feb. 7.
"This is going to be a fun activity for our merchants," said Lori Hill, tourism director for the city.
"We'll give each tourist a bingo card with squares representing each of our participating merchants, probably around 15. Merchants will mark their squares as tourists visit their shops. For those who visit all the merchants on the tour and get their cards completely filled, like blackout in a bingo game, we'll have a drawing for a gift basket," Hill said.
