A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
|
What a Week!
The Gig Harbor Chamber of Commerce Economic Development Committee has been working tirelessly over the past year to find ways to drive business to Gig Harbor during the US Open at Chambers Bay. What a Week!
First Phil Mickelson has pizza at the Hub and then Tiger Woods flys into the Narrows Airport and waves to everyone as he heads off for a practice round at Chambers Bay. Those two arrivals sure got everyone thinking about the US Open and the fact that some famous players may be visiting our community. But before the tournament starts, we have the Maritime Gig which is this weekend! The weather is going to be outstanding and there is a full schedule of fun activities, lots of food options and a great line up of entertainment.
If you are feeling left out, come join us as a volunteer this weekend and get close to all the action. We have a number of opportunities for you either Saturday or Sunday, just contact Tracy Patton here at the Chamber and she will get you a t-shirt and fun job! Don't forget, tomorrow is the first Farmer's Market at Skansie Brothers Park from 3:00pm until 7:00pm with lots of interesting vendors and products.
