the cat's out- goody bags for first 100 visitors

We've decided this year to create gift bags for the first 100 market visitors each market day. These bags will be chock-full of coupons and gifts from nearby restaurants and business. Attendees will be able to enjoy special discounts at restuarants such as Willow, I love Thai and Chick-fil-a (something for everyone!)...goodies from Curves of Arlington and Advance Car Rental have also come in. First come first serve! The bags will be distributed from the Ballston Virginia Square partnership booth where you can also pick up a map of Ballston area businesses.
