Big winner

In July, the independent retailers co-sponsored by Cortez Retail Enhancement held a celebration. As part of the campaign, Cortez Retail Enhancement teamed with other local independent retailers and held a drawing for prizes from each business. Susie’s Hallmark donated a convertible duffle bag and spa products, Body by Design donated a three-month gym membership, and Mountain Hair donated a manicure or pedicure. Mary Beth Acott was the winner. Pictured are: Lindsay Fresquez of Body by Design, Sandy Rogers of Mountain Hair, Mary Beth Acott and son Cole, and Susan Keck of Susie’s Hallmark Shop.
