A Day in Dana Point Giveaway Recap
Hello, DPD readers! We are thrilled to bring you a little wrap-up of our recent “A Day in Dana Point” Giveaway. We were so overwhelmed by your enthusiasm as we rolled out the giveaway while highlighting the seven amazing local businesses who participated. Today, we're excited to recap the event, announce the winner, and express our gratitude for making it all possible.
The Giveaway: Our first ever giveaway “A Day in Dana Point” was rolled it out in celebration of our website launch. We thought it would be fun to highlight some of our favorite and/or new neighborhood establishments and so we partnered with seven local businesses who contributed prizes in excess of $500 in value, everything from $25-$100 gift certificates to shop in-store, complimentary wine tasting, bottle of wine and charcuterie board, cool clothing merch, facials, brow treatments and more!
Special thanks to these seven businesses below. Without them, and their generous prizes, we couldn’t have done it. Each one jumped in without question to make our giveaway so special. Give ‘em a follow on Instagram below!
