“Last year the Chamber wanted the local residents to think Alice First during the Christmas Holidays,” Chamber Executive Director Juan Navejar said. “We had a great turnout last year for the one-day event that we wanted to try something new this year and have an event of some kind each night leading to the Shop Alice campaign.”
