ORO VALLEY, Ariz. (Feb. 1, 2024) – To help celebrate the Town of Oro Valley’s 50th Anniversary this year, the Oro Valley Chamber of Commerce has partnered with 50 local businesses for a special shop local campaign, which officially launches Monday, Feb. 5, 2024.

Throughout the year, fifty Oro Valley businesses will be highlighted for a period of two weeks. During that time, shoppers are encouraged to visit and support the highlighted business and enter the raffle. At the end of the two weeks, a winner will be announced from each business’s raffle box. To view the “50 Businesses for 50 Years” calendar and program details, visit orovalleychamber.com.

Shoppers can win specialty prizes from each business or one of 50 grand prize bundles from the Chamber. Each bundle includes: a one-night stay and breakfast for two at El Conquistador Tucson, A Hilton Resort; two passes to Tohono Chul Gardens, Gallery & Bistro; a $25 gift card to Noble Hops; and a stylish Stanley-style Chamber mug.

"Strong businesses are the backbone of a healthy community,” said Kristen Sharp, President & CEO of the Oro Valley Chamber of Commerce. “We're so excited to launch this special program that celebrates Oro Valley's dynamic business community over the last 50 years.”
