Atlantic, Iowa, June 28, 2019- Atlantic’s summer shopping event, Crazy Daze, is getting a new look to promote moving forward and to celebrate something new. Crazy Daze Reimagined: A Carnival of Savings will be Sat., July 13, 2019 and will have free games and family activities. The games will be located down Chestnut Street from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and will give shoppers the opportunity to win additional discounts. There will be bounce houses provided by the Nishna Valley YMCA in Atlantic City Park from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. as well as face painting, chalk art, a temporary tattoo station, and more.

A-Town SmokeShack will be in City Park serving their regular menu as well as kid-sized meals. Randy Burk, Jason Reed and The High Crest, of Des Moines, will provide entertainment for the day. Shoppers will have the chance to win $250 in AtlantiCash by bringing a receipt from any of the participating businesses to the Chamber’s table in City Park from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. that day. They can also bring their receipts to the depot Monday, July 15 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The winner will be drawn Tuesday.

Reimagined was added to Crazy Daze to revitalize it without forgetting its history. Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Bailey Smith said “Crazy Daze has been a community staple for over 30 years. But, 30 years ago, Crazy Daze was the only big sale of the year. Fast forward, and the way we do business and how consumers spend money is different today. Our goal is to help change the mindset of what Crazy Daze can be without diminishing what it was.”
