Greetings!
Many members enjoyed our highly anticipated 3rd Annual Golf
Outing on Friday, July 16th at Gambler Ridge Golf Course. Although no one won the Hole In One brand new Ford Mustang this year, a great time was had by all.

The luncheon will feature a professional comedian...and I don't mean me!

Business Tips - Help Your Fellow Chamber Members
Black Box Business Services - John Pino
The
IRS will greatly restrict use of federal tax deposit coupons after
2010. Only very small businesses will be permitted to use
them, sch as employers that have $2,500 or less in quarterly employment taxes
and that pay their liability when filing returns. All other firms will
have to deposit their taxes by wire.
 Be dependable and punctual - answer
phone
messages and follow up on commitments as quickly as possible. Following
these
basic rules will enhance your credibility and differentiate yourself
from the
competition. - Joel Browndorf, Adoring Caregivers, LLC
