A cash mob is a new trend in which people use social media to plan organized events, providing a way to join together and support local businesses.

The concept is simple: with $20 in hand, members of a community come together to shop in a locally-owned establishment to support their favorite local business and support the area economy.

Check In At – Art & Espresso, Beauweevils or Ladles To Linens to learn which Downtown Merchant will be the recipient of this Cash Mob.

Bring $20.00 and a friend and enjoy shopping in the charming Downtown of Winnsboro, Texas.

We are likely to see last minute additions of musical events, so keep an eye out for them. Check the Winnsboro Online Guide page on Facebook for performances that are booked at the last minute.

Winnsboro musicians are inclined to schedule a gig at the last minute (and I do mean LAST minute!). Occasionally there may be a change in performers due to schedules or illness.

Hi - It's me, City Kitty, the official spokescat for the Winnsboro Animal Shelter with a reminder that we need your help to have the bestest Garage Sale EVER to raise money for the Winnsboro Animal Shelter.

Clean out your own garage and see what you can part with. We can use anything that is useful, but in good condition (no clothes please).  We also need two-footed human volunteers to help sort and price the stuff people bring us to sell to support the Shelter.

This is a really important event for us because our dogs, cats and other critters need vet care, food, toys and, most of all, love. (Hint, hint - time to consider a furry addition to your household!)

The Animal Shelter Garage Sale is an adventure, even for four-footed folks like me. Please tell your human friends to come shop the Garage Sale!

Your friend,

City Kitty
