It is almost spring! I can just feel it coming around the corner, as I am sure many of you can as well. With the thought of walking through the orchards as they bloom and throwing rocks in the river with my kids, the snow can't melt soon enough. As a new member of the Pateros Chamber of Commerce and as the newly elected President I am excited to be involved in a community that is so supportive of its businesses. We are all excited-this is the first email newsletter that we are now sending out to Pateros business owners, community members and anyone in the surrounding area who is interested in being updated on what's happening in Pateros.

You will see as you scan the contents that there are a few different sections to this newsletter. Along with upcoming events that will be highlighted each month, there will be two featured businesses each month, an update on the school, a mayor's column and more. 

There is a list of upcoming events on the left side of the newsletter. If these events change, for any reason, you will be updated right here. Put these dates on your calendar now as many of them are fast approaching!

If you know of anyone who you think may enjoy and/or benefit from this newsletter please email us their address. In addition, if you have any information that you believe would benefit others in the community by being in this newsletter please email the information. Thank you for taking the time to read this newsletter. We are excited to have it a part of the Pateros Chamber of Commerce.
