It's October and we are very excited about what this month brings... the first ever Edmonds International Film Festival! This event will take place October 20 - 24th right here in downtown Edmonds. The Edmonds Chamber is proud to be the Presenting Sponsor of this new venture and we hope you will all come down and check-out all the happenings.

 

On Monday, October 4th, the Chamber will host a Candidates' Forum. Also this month is the annual Halloween Trick-or-Treat Night brought to you by the Edmonds Chamber of Commerce, the Downtown Edmonds Merchant's Association, and the Journal Media Group. Thousands of costumed kids and their parents fill the streets and sidewalks of downtown Edmonds for a fun-filled family event you won't want to miss.

 

The Chamber also has some important Board of Directors business to attend to in October... board nominations. The Board of Directors endorsed a slate of nominees that was presented to them at their annual retreat on Wednesday, September 22nd.The slate will be accepted at the October 21st Board Meeting. Any petitions for additional endorsements to the Board of Directors need to be received at the Chamber office by Wednesday, October 6th.
