These fun networking events just keep getting better and better with more members attending each successive event to talk up their business, find out what other Members have done and are planning and getting the latest Chamber news.
At last week's Mixer, 52 Members and their guests, as well as Mayor
Bill Weber, Deputy-Mayor
Elizabeth Davis-Dagg, Economic Development Committee member
Paul Wilson and
Louie DiPalma from the Ontario Chamber of Commerce congregated in the "
Poker Room" located below Dave's Clubhouse at Oakwood Resort.
The venue offered a great view of the golf course, lots of seating and support for a visual presentation as well as a private bar for our event. Fabulous appetizers were on-hand to taste and test.
Celebrating 65 Years

L-R: Mark, Laura, Xavier and RuthAnn Boogemans.. |
Blue Water Motel, the event's sponsor, had some special news to share with fellow Members. They are celebrating 65-years in business. The Boogemans Family was represented by current managerial team of
Laura and Mark Boogemans who inherited the mantel from
Xavier and RuthAnn Boogemans.
Mark Boogemans provided an intimate and witty retrospective of Blue Water Motel over the years with great photographs illustrating various developments in the Motel from 1949 to today.
Over the time we've held these networking events, the Members' Showcase has grown from a single table displaying a few brochures to two tables offering a variety of promotional materials for sharing with fellow Members. The Showcase helps your fellow Chamber Member learn about your business and potentially their knowledge of you could lead to a business opportunity or sale or reservation.
THANK YOU to Blue Water Motel and Oakwood Resort for sponsoring and hosting this event!
