Greetings! 

Wow! It certainly has been a busy fall at  the Chamber! We celebrated Wanamaker Hardware 's 90th Anniversary, Luv and Other Gifts' Grand Opening and of course, the much anticipated,  Taste of Arlington. It was a magical night that included a rainbow, sparkling lights, delicious food, live music and over 250 attendees that sampled food, wine and beer from over 26 vendors. Special thanks to all our participating vendors, sponsors, raffle basket donors and the Taste Committee.
  
Coming up next is Trick or Treat Arlington. Over 70 businesses have registered. If you want to join in the fun, register, post a flyer in your window, and have some treats on hand to give out to the trick or treaters.
  
Lastly, First Lights will be here in 5 weeks! Check out the details and register to be part of this community event. Sponsorship opportunities are available!
  
  
Best,

Jenn
