Del Ray Business Association Launches “Del Ray to Delray Beach” Raffle 

ALEXANDRIA, VA – The Del Ray Business Association launched a new raffle “Del Ray to Delray Beach” to thank the community for their year-long support of small businesses throughout the pandemic.  One lucky customer will win a trip to Delray Beach, Florida for a winter escape from December 28, 2021 to January 2, 2022.

“After a long and difficult year, the vaccine is here, bringing new hope for a safe and gradual return to normal,” said Del Ray Business Association President Dr. Lauren Fisher.  “One of the things we’re looking forward to most is traveling again.  This fun promotion is a way to say thank you to the community for their tremendous support of our small businesses, and to encourage customers to continue to shop local as we wrap up these tough winter months.”
