Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce introduces BG Bucks

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. -While the holiday season is winding down, shopping is still a favorite pastime for many.

The Bowling Green Area Chamber of Commerce has now introduced a new way to shop and support local businesses.

BG Bucks is a certificate that can be used at many different local businesses around Bowling Green. From restaurants to detailing and landscaping, BG Bucks can be used to purchase many goods and services across town.

One member of the chamber says its an excellent new way to help support our local economy.

“The BG Bucks program is a gift certificate program that is available for anyone to purchase gift certificates and any chamber partner business that wants to participate is able to accept those gift certificates. So what it does is it helps people spend money locally,” said Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce’s VP of Partnership Dawn Johnson.

Businesses like Barbara Stewart, Mellow Mushroom, Mill House Café and many other local businesses will accept the certificates. The chamber is also looking to add local businesses to the program to help expand opportunities.
