Relax! It’s Black Friday at Bell Tower Shops
The traditional beginning of the holiday season, the day after Thanksgiving, need not be a harried, scary time.
This year, Bell Tower Shops is reintroducing enjoyment to Black Friday shopping. Stores open at 8 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 27 for the Christmas extravaganza featuring live entertainment, holiday treats and of course, incredible shopping bargains. Mini-massages, gift wrapping, valet parking, as well as courtesy shuttles to return shoppers to their cars will be available to help take the stress out of the day.
“We are bringing calm back to the holiday shopping experience,” said Amy Fletcher-Smith, the shopping center’s director of marketing. “Avoid the holiday hurries and join us at Bell Tower Shops for a day of leisurely shopping and dining.”
In the spirit of giving, Bell Tower Shops will sponsor Buck-a-Duck, a fundraiser for American Cancer Society of Lee County. One thousand pink, rubber ducks floating in the shopping center’s fountain will be sold for $1 a piece. Purchase a duck to win fabulous prizes and discounts with all proceeds benefitting the Cattle Barons’ Ball held at Bell Tower Shops in January 2010.
The Salvation Army will also be on hand manning their kettles with celebrity bell ringers including Fort Myers Mayor Randy Henderson, Lee County Sheriff Mike Scott and Chicago Bulls great, Walt Wesley. Be on the lookout for The Salvation Army’s 14’ kettle that will be stationed near U.S. 41.
The perfect gift for everyone on Santa’s list is Bell Tower Shops gift cards, which are available at the shopping center’s management office located between Ann Taylor and Sunglass Hut.
Bell Tower Shops is an open-air lifestyle center, located at U.S. 41 and
