Mom’s Night Sip & Stroll on May 1
Calling all moms– it is time to shine, shop, and sip with the Mom’s Night Out Sip & Stroll with me event happening from 5 to 8 p.m. on May 1 in downtown Bowie.
Come see what is new and true in downtown. Gift basket giveaways, horse-drawn carriage rides, special play guest appearances and free live music will enhance the fun. This also begins the observation of National Travel and Tourism Week.
Bowie Community Development welcomes 20 participating locations and several pop vendors as well. Each location hosts a mini-open house so strollers may start at any location on the flyer.
Shoppers will be able to stroll to the various businesses to purchase an armband and/or souvenir glass at any participating locations for $15. Participants are encouraged to use their Sip and Stroll with Me glass from a previous event.
