Downtown Tiffin's 3rd Thursday Caps Off 2023 with "Last Call Holiday Shopping"
TIFFIN, OHIO – December 15, 2023 – Downtown Tiffin is gearing up for its final 3rd Thursday event of 2023. On December 21st, the community is invited to join the "Last Call Holiday Shopping" event, encouraging last-minute shoppers to explore local retail shops that will be keeping their doors open later for the occasion.
To enhance the 3rd Thursday experience, the Downtown Marketing Committee has crafted a special "Last Call Holiday Shopping" BINGO game. Participants can pick up their BINGO cards at local shops or at the Downtown Tiffin lobby located at 96 S. Washington Street. The BINGO cards are designed to guide shoppers through various participating locations, encouraging shopping, dining, and exploring the downtown area.
Completed BINGO cards should be returned to the Downtown Tiffin lobby on the same evening. As an extra incentive, all completed cards will be entered into a drawing, and one lucky winner will be awarded $50 in Chamber Cash.
"We wanted to create a memorable and engaging experience for our community, especially during this festive season. 'Last Call Holiday Shopping' is a great way to support local businesses, enjoy a delicious meal or beverage, and have some fun with the BINGO game," said Vickie Wilkins, vice-chair of the Downtown Development Committee.
The 3rd Thursday events have become a monthly tradition in Downtown Tiffin, which will continue in 2024 during the whole calendar year.

About Downtown Tiffin
The revitalization of downtown Tiffin began in 2011, when a group of community members came together to form “Tiffin Tomorrow”, with the goal of promoting and encouraging economic development in Downtown Tiffin, and creating plans, programs, and actions to ensure long-term vitality and prosperity. In 2014, the City of Tiffin contracted with SIEDC to act as the downtown organization and “Tiffin Tomorrow” came under the SIEDC (now TSEP) umbrella as the “Downtown Development Board,” which serves as the governing board of the downtown organization. In 2015, Tiffin joined Heritage Ohio’s Main Street Program. For more information, click here.
