  • This week’s featured business….Songbird
If you find yourself strolling down Fourth Street’s Retro Row, pop in and say hello to Songbird store owner, Jennifer Hill. Jennifer will proudly tell you, “Songbird is a novelty gift shop offering customers a selection of unique items and funny gifts to make somebody laugh! Our biggest sellers are greeting cards and novelty socks.”
Jennifer was previously part owner of Sneaky Tiki Boutique until she decided to spread her wings and establish her own shop. The store name Songbird reflects Jennifer’s love for birds, and even more evident of her affection for birds is the shop’s mascot, an English budgie named Sailor. Customers will find Sailor propped up on the store counter.
Songbird is approaching its 8th year of business in the Rose Park Neighborhood. Jennifer comments, “The neighborhood feels like a small town; there is a sense of community. I love the old buildings and the familiar faces.”
Songbird recently implemented the FiveStar Customer Loyalty Program. Customers that earn up to 50 points receive five dollars off their purchase.
