HOLIDAY COMEDY SOCIAL

 

 

Each year, the Holiday Social committee plans an event for members to gather together, and enjoy each other's company and the celebration of the Holiday Season.

 

This year we are fortunate to have performer and comedian Vito Zatto as our MC for the evening on Thursday, December 5th, 5:30pm at the Holiday Inn & Suites.  

 

We will have a Wine Pull, a Silent Auction, and Raffle for the $500 Holiday Bucks. Be sure to stop by the chamber office to get a ticket if you're not able to attend the event. There will be food and drinks...and entertainment! It's a great deal...and a great deal of fun! It's a wonderful way to get to know fellow chamber members, too. Here is the sign up... 

NO DECEMBER LUNCHEON

We know how busy everyone is this time of year, so the chamber always omits a December luncheon. Take a few extra moments to breathe...and enjoy the celebrations of the season!  

 

Our next lunch will be the Multi-chamber Progressive luncheon on January 29th at Medinah Shrine Center.  

CELEBRATE: BRIDAL & SPECIAL EVENT EXPO 1/26 

The 4th annual B2C expo for everything "party" will take place on Sunday, January 26th from 11:30-3 at the Holiday Inn & Suites. CELEBRATE, our Bridal and Special Event Expo will offer vendors who will help them put on a party, prom, quincea�era, wedding or other special celebration.
