#DGSOtogo Week 2 winners announced

A Greensboro skate shop is the first business to win a downtown Greensboro contest. The contest is a creative way to get residents to shop local.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Downtown Greensboro has drawn the second week of winning names for its #DGSOtogo contest.

Week two's winners are:

  • $500 GRAND PRIZE: Jill Hare
  • $500 BUSINESS GRAND PRIZE: Jacob Raymond Jewelry
  • Downtown Greensboro Merchandise and Gift Cards: Charli Bryan, Adam Gray, Everett Sheffield, and one person who wished to remain anonymous

Sixty-one people entered the contest and generated more than $10,700 in local revenue dollars.

DGI is challenging the Triad to find a local spot in downtown Greensboro to eat or shop in person, order takeout, buy gift cards, or shop online. After spending  $25 or more in a downtown business, participants can upload a photo of their signed receipt to be entered into a weekly drawing for $500.

Week one's grand prize winner was Kaiden Manning, and Stolen Skate Shop won the $500 business grand prize.

Not only does the shopper win, but the represented business will also receive $500.
