On November 30th, during the Light Up Lakewood holiday season kick-off event, Main Street Lakewood and LakewoodAlive will launch a “buy local” campaign by selling Lakewood CertifiCheck gift certificates, which will be redeemable at any registered Lakewood business.

Start your holiday shopping with Lakewood CertifiCheck gift certificates! The perfect gift for teachers, coaches, employees, friends and family: Lakewood CertifiChecks..

YOU CAN PRE-ORDER NOW FOR PICK-UP at the LIGHT UP LAKEWOOD EVENT! Go to www.lakewoodalive.com for an order form.

CertifiCheck gift certificates function like a cashier’s check, and can be directly deposited into business bank accounts at full face value. Change is given in cash. They are available in denominations from $5 to $50. This is not a fundraiser. LakewoodAlive and Lakewood Community Progress Inc. are subsidizing administrative and start-up costs as a community service.

A list of participating businesses will be printed in the Light Up Lakewood Nov. 13th pull-out guide in the Lakewood Observer. Every buyer will receive a list of retailers where the gift certificates can be redeemed – currently 150!
