Mark your calendars for this year’s Swirl…Saturday, March 2!  The Georgetown Swirl is winner of the Texas Downtown Association 2012 President’s Award for Best Promotional Event.
Enjoy an evening of downtown shopping while sampling Texas’s top wines and dining on local restaurants’ savory bites on the Georgetown Square from 6-9 p.m. on Saturday, March 2.  Live jazz music will help set the fun and festive mood.

Judy and Len Lester, downtown property and business owners of The Escape Fine Crafts & Gifts, will serve as the 2013 Swirl honorary event chairs. The Escape Fine Crafts & Gifts was also a finalist for the Texas Downtown Association 2012 President’s Award for Best Downtown Business.  Please join them in supporting this annual downtown fundraising event!

A total of 400 event tickets are only available for purchase online starting in December at Swirl.Georgetown.org for $30 each.  The 2013 Swirl poster will also be for sale for $10 each and can be signed by Graphic Artist Joe Cuniff in the Williamson County Courthouse.  Georgetown Swirl event proceeds will help provide funding for the Georgetown Main Street Program’s Façade & Sign Grant Program. Through this program, building and business owners may obtain matching grants for the improvement of downtown signage and facades, while keeping the building’s historical integrity.

Shoppers can also buy opportunities to win several groupings out of 200 favorite wines by purchasing Swirl Wine Auction tickets the night of the event or in advance at the Visitor Info Center, 103 W. 7th St., or at the Williamson Museum, 716 S. Austin Ave., for $5 each or 5/$20.  Wine auction proceeds benefit the Main Street Facade & Sign Grant Program and the Williamson Museum.

All Things Kids, 703 S. Main St., will have licensed child care providers on staff throughout The Georgetown Swirl.  Check your children into their Play Zone for hours of fun and educational projects and games. This drop-in service is available exclusively to Swirl Ticket Holders for $5 per hour.  Call 512/868-2659 to save your space in advance.
