If you're itching to get your holiday shopping underway and fancy a little scavenger hunt, Boulder City's latest initiative should be right up your alley. The City of Boulder City has announced the Downtown Historic District Passport Program—a festive quest that starts tomorrow and runs through the end of the year. This local adventure not only steers shoppers to local businesses but dangles the carrot of potentially winning $50 in gift cards, as stated in a recent city announcement.
The game plan is simple: grab a passport from City Hall or select locations within the Downtown Historic District starting November 15. With each visit to a participating shop, ask for a stamp—no purchase necessary. Collecting at least twenty could make you a contender for one of the 150 gift cards up for grabs. Just ensure your stamped passport is sent to the City Hall's Community Development Department by January 15, 2026, to enter.
It's evident that Boulder City is making strides to bolster local commerce with this holiday activity, a sentiment echoed by the aforementioned city announcement, "The program is designed to increase foot traffic, promote local shopping, and create a fun and engaging experience for all." Moreover, the passport also serves as your guide to seasonal happenings, doubling as an itinerary for the city's holiday events. Residents eager to participate should be eighteen or over, and only one passport is permitted per household.
