Join us for a Hot Cocoa Stroll in the Excelsior-Lake Minnetonka Area. Participating businesses will provide hot chocolate, cookies, or treats and you shop. The Hot Cocoa Stroll is not just a day of shopping; it's a community celebration. By joining, you contribute to the vibrancy of our community by shopping local. It's an opportunity to turn a slow sales season into a thriving one, with the community rallying around our local businesses. Submit a photo of your receipt and get entered into a drawing for a community cash e-gift card!
