Summer Passport Program

The Windsor Chamber of Commerce Passport program, which runs mid-June through August is a great excuse to go out for breakfast, lunch or dinner and to enjoy some of Windsor's fun shops, activities and attractions. This year the prizes include gift certificates to all the participating restaurants, attractions, and others.

The Passport to Summer Fun has something for everyone: great restaurants, shops and fun things to do like go to the Windsor Historical Society, Concerts on the Green and Farmers Market. You can have lots of summer family fun and you might just win!

New this year is the format of the Passport itself. Instead of a printed book, the 2018 Passport is digital. All you need is your smartphone to participate. Register at windsorcc.org and get your own Passport where you can upload your own photo and keep track of your stamped locations. "Every year we'd hear from people who kept forgetting their Passports at home. This year we decided to go digital because the one thing you never leave at home is your cell phone," said Paula Pierce, member of the Windsor Chamber Tourism Committee.

Get at least 10 digital stamps in your Passport by August 31st and you'll be automatically entered into the prize drawing. And, as an extra bonus . . . if you get ALL the Passport stamps, you'll get a $10 Chamber Gift Certificate, too, good at over 44 local restaurants, retail shops and other businesses!

The Passport program is organized by the Chamber's Tourism Committee, headed up by Executive Director, Jane Garibay. "The Chamber's mission is to support and strengthen the Windsor business community which supports the entire community," says Garibay. "The Passport is a fun program that brings people to Windsor to enjoy our local businesses, and has become an annual summer tradition."

The Windsor Chamber Tourism Committee also offers an event calendar email newsletter called "What's Going on in Windsor?".
