CLEVELAND, Tenn. — A community Christmas tree lighting, carols, parade, candlelight tour of Charleston and Calhoun historic spots and a new gift card mark the holiday season kickoff this weekend.
BuyItBradley gift cards are accepted at 25 locations, and the list is growing as the holiday season gets closer, said Aaron Weatherford, membership director for the Cleveland-Bradley Chamber of Commerce, which is sponsoring the cards.
Some businesses have chosen the cards as a gift to employees, he said.
The cards can be reloaded and used all year, and the card owner can go to BuyItBradley.com to check his balance and purchases, Weatherford said.
“So I can see how much I’ve put back into the local economy,” he said.
