Path to Presents
Path to Presents is Back!
The Copley Chamber is excited to bring back Path to Presents for its second year — an even bigger, better holiday shopping experience!
This weeklong celebration blends two favorite traditions: Penguin Quest, a community-wide scavenger hunt, and a virtual silent auction. The fun begins Saturday, November 29 (Small Business Saturday) and runs through Saturday, December 6.
New this year:
-
Easy Penguin Quest check-ins! Scan a QR code at each stop to track your progress. As you play, you’ll climb the leaderboard — and so will the businesses you visit.
-
A ticketed wrap party! Join us at Brighten Brewing Company on December 6 for a festive evening as the auction winds down. Your ticket includes entry into special raffles available that night only, with proceeds benefiting Copley-Fairlawn City Schools.
And while you’re busy shopping, bidding, and questing, we have just one request: stay tuned — Penguin Quest registration is opening soon!
