Dear Chamber Members;
November already! I have consumed a months worth of Halloween candy over the past few day. Have you noticed that many of our local retailers are ready for Christmas?   Time sure does move quickly, especially in the chamber world. If you have not done so take a moment and renew your chamber membership for 2015-2016. Thank you to those members who have done so.
We want you to take full advantage of your membership offerings. What are your chamber member benefits? Are you developing relationships? Growing your business?
Take a moment to review the bullet points in the link below to understand how to incorporate the chamber into your daily routine. Need specifics? Stop by our office to learn in depth details.
