Limited to nine participants, this tour will introduce NOSCDC members to locally owned businesses along the King Street Corridor in Old Town Alexandria.

This is a small way to safely experience the festive nature of the upcoming holiday season while learning about and supporting local businesses.

The shopping trip will be divided into four distinct sections with a variety of shopping options at each stop to help limit the number of shoppers in any store at any given time. Suggestions for shops to visit, including descriptions and directions, will be provided as will some historical information about Alexandria and the opportunity to safely socialize with a small group.

Masks are required, comfortable shoes and weather appropriate clothing are recommended.

We will meet at the three-way corner of Commerce Street, King Street, & South Fayette Street at 1:00 p.m. For GPS purposes use 121 Commerce Street, Alexandria, VA 22314.

Please note that this tour will end near the waterfront, not at the starting point. If you would like suggestions on parking or public transportation, please contact Dawn, dawnthetourguide@gmail.com.

The start time of this event is based upon the optimum shopping hours for Old Town.
