Winners of the 1,000+ Fan Giveaway

WOW!

In just over a year, Experience Union is now celebrating over 1,000 followers on our Facebook page.

Thank you to each and every one of you for following our posts, photos, and plugs about our little town Union, the surrounding area, and the wonderful businesses who sponsor us.

All three of us sincerely appreciate the opportunity to share with you on a daily basis. (Read more about each of us here.)

Before I announce the winners, I strongly encourage you to follow the sponsors on Facebook and any other social media or newsletters that they offer. This is just one simple way to support our local businesses.

One other big way to support our town is to tell your friends about the area and the businesses. It may not be feasible to spend our money in every local shop each day of the year, but you can support them by recommending them to your friends and family.

I'll make the Facebook part easy for you - just click the little "Like" button next to each sponsor below as you read through the winners list.

Note: Winners MUST email me at experienceunionmo@gmail.com before 9 am Wednesday, July 3rd to claim their prize. Please include your name, email, mailing address, and phone number.
