In order to highlight all of the shopping options sprinkled throughout the area, Starke County Tourism and the Chamber of Commerce are hosting the first ever ‘Holiday Shoptacular’ event!
It will be held starting at 9 a.m. on Saturday, November 30th, in conjunction with National Small Business Saturday.
Chamber Director Brenda Palmer encourages community members to start their day off at the Chamber of Commerce Office, which is located at the Nickel Plate Depot on Heaton Street, near the City of Knox Gateway.
In addition to having a variety of county-related items that could make for great gifts, some local business owners who do not have ‘brick and mortar’ stores will be set up there passing along holiday savings on their items.

Palmer said residents will walk away with a list of Starke County businesses and some of the special deals that they’ll be offering that day. She said those lists will also be available at some of the local stores.
Director Palmer added that the list will include some local restaurant options as well just in case people are looking to take a break and have a bite during their shopping spree.
Palmer said they plan to make the ‘Holiday Shoptacular’ an annual tradition and mentioned that this event is a good way to highlight the fact that this isn’t the same county that is was 20 years ago.
She commented that there are so many unique businesses within the area that there’s no reason Starke County can’t be a shopping destination.
