12 days of christmas with the columbia falls area chamber


The 12 Days of Christmas is an annual fundraiser planned by the Columbia Falls Area Chamber of Commerce. During December, 78 winners will be the lucky winners of our valued business donations. One lucky winner will win $300.00 in Christmas Cash!

Spread cheer, smiles and support shopping local for the holidays! 

The 12 Days of Christmas was started in 2017 to promote our local businesses during the winter season, promote shopping locally, and help our local communities learn about the businesses we have. It is the perfect way to showcase your business, get potential new customers, and spread some holiday cheer.

Overview of the Event:

      • October: We collect donations and create marketing booklets, videos and social media promotions to showcase your business and prizes people can win. We need a minimum of 78 for the event to be successful. The more the merrier as we will just spread more holiday cheer.
      • November: Tickets go on sale to businesses and the community.  We will announce locations at the end of October so you know where to get them from! 
      • December: Chamber representatives lead 12 days of LIVE video drawings at 12 different businesses. Every business that donates gets a small blurb about their business during the live video before the prize is drawn. 

Prizes are bundled into 78 prize packages. On December 1st we draw 12 winners, December 2nd, 11 winners until we get to our final day where we draw a $300 cash prize winner. Of course, we will encourage the winner to shop local and shop Chamber!

Last year, we sold almost 4,000 tickets to local community members!
