WTUZ, the Tuscarawas County Chamber of Commerce, Unified Bank, and Peterman Plumbing and Heating know it’s important, more than ever, to shop and dine local during this holiday season.  These local businesses serve our communities, create thousands of jobs for our residents, and pay taxes to support our towns and schools.  Our local businesses are working hard to make your shopping experience safe and creating many sales and promotions you can take advantage of.  Spending money at local businesses helps keep the money local, instead of going into the pockets of some multi-national conglomerate.  Local businesses are 250% more likely to support community non-profits. The owners of local businesses CARE what you think and what you need. Their whole business revolves around the fact that you are their customer and they want to do right by you.  Some of these businesses you can stop at are:
