shoplocalFather’s Day is just two days away and if you haven’t picked up that perfect gift for the father figure in your life, there’s no need to leave town to do it.

Bob Wilson with the Perry Area Chamber of Commerce says you can find plenty of gift options right in your own backyard.

Whether it’s tools at Ace Hardware or Orscheln’s, a card or picture frame from Ben’s Five and Dime, or dinner at one of the local restaurants, he says there’s no shortage of opportunities.

Wilson reminds everyone that it’s important to support your local economy because doing so helps keep the money in town, circulating through the community.  These businesses are then able to help support the schools, local events, residents and causes.
