The Historic Downtown Elizabethtown Business Association invites all to attend their monthly Third Thursday event, which for this month takes place April 18.
The association says that as with any Third Thursday, downtown shops will extend their business hours to 8 p.m. and will offer specials and discounts, but Association President Dana Garrett says the fun doesn’t stop there.
“Each month on the third Thursday of the month we like to have a theme to kind of celebrate downtown and encourage people to come downtown, and our April theme is Earth Day,” Garrett said. “We thought it was fitting since Earth Day falls in April.”
The Earth Day theme means a chance to celebrate green thumbs and green living.
“We have a mini farmers market we’re going to have set up on Walker Square with some local farmer vendors,” Garrett said. “We also have some representatives from our local conservation district and the Hardin County stormwater agency that’ll have some giveaways for kids.”
Dr. Paul Gerard will be showing off his reptiles from 6 to 7 p.m., and interactive displays will be set up.
Garrett says if you’re looking for plans for this Thursday night, look no further.
“The weather looks to be phenomenal, so it’ll be a great night to come out and shop at our local stores, have some dinner with your friends and family, and then of course for the kids there’s lots of cool activities for them to see too.”
