Gift certificates are appreciated, especially for those hard-to-buy-for loved ones on your list. And, let’s be honest. They are easy for the gift-giver. No sizes required. No color choices. No style blunders. No hustle-bustle at the stores. And here’s the bonus! Not only are they appreciated and easy to give, but it is also a great way to “shop local”.
Lawrence County offers a variety of gift certificate choices to delight and impress your family and friends. Whether you are feeding their hobbies or their bellies, we’ve got the perfect gift certificates to match their wish list.
For the Golf Enthusiast
Golfers are longing for spring already and their next chance to hit the links. A gift certificate for Otis Park & Golf Course or Stone Crest Golf Course will give them something to look forward to, and maybe make their wait seem a little less daunting. Both golf courses offer scenic views and a friendly challenge. A gift certificate from either or both, is the right choice.
Something New or Tried and True
Bedford’s newest bar and grill, Downtown at DaCar’s, is right on the square. Before you leave with your gift certificate, we highly suggest you sample some items on the menu before you go. It will be the yummiest shopping trip you’ve ever made, plus you will be absolutely convinced you’ve made a perfect gift choice. Always a favorite, Court Room Sports Grill offers a range of cuisines including Cajun that will make anyone’s taste buds merry! Afterall, where else can you get Voodoo fries?! Another choice is an evening of fun. Friends and local brews are a winning combination! Salt Creek Brewery is a unique and casual place to hang out with friends while listening to local music and lofting a craft beer. Once an old service garage, the atmosphere is quirky and cool with an automotive flare. You can’t go wrong with any choice. Why not get all three?
The Great Outdoors
An Indiana State Park Pass gives unspoiled scenic beauty, lakes, trails and nature year-round. Treat yourself to dinner at the Spring Mill State Park, and buy your state park pass on-site, while you are there. Perfect for anyone, it is a prized gift that will keep on giving throughout the year. A gift of adventure from Thorne’s Recreational Property is sure to be a hit with the outdoorsy thrill-seeker on your list. ATVs, horseback riding, hiking or biking over rugged hills and through muddy creeks are sure to satisfy those looking for gritty, heart-pounding excitement. A farm-fresh choice, Applacres is Lawrence County’s best known hometown market and apple orchard. Locally grown and homemade goodies are always welcomed gifts. Hand-dipped caramel apples, a variety of fruit grown on-site, apple cider, preserves, vegetables and gift items are available. And, since this is Lawrence County, home of the Annual Persimmon Festival, fresh persimmon pulp is offered so you can make your own cherished persimmon pudding recipe. These are all exceptional and easy ways to put “the great outdoors” under your tree this year.
Sure, it is easy to give gift certificates. And yet, they are so appreciated and welcomed, especially when they are thoughtfully matched to hobbies and interests. What a bonus when you can combine “easy” with “thoughtful” and “shopping local”! It’s all at your fingertips in Lawrence County.
