28 local businesses have taken up the Shop Local Challenge and are hoping the townspeople get behind them for a chance to win $6000 in prizes.

To enter the draw all you need to do is spend $10 in a particpating business (listed below).

The winner of the grand prize will receive $300 vouchers to be spent in the businesses totalling $6000. The major prize will be drawn on Christmas Eve December 24.

Harden Bearings and Hardware’s Brenden McKay (pictured) is holding just one of the many power tools for sale at HBH. The 2200 watt 9 inch Dewalt angle grinder comes with 5 discs and is on sale for $245. Brenden said their Kincrome catalogue is out now with some excellent Christmas ideas available.
