A
Note from your Chamber President
While
our Chamber has limited resources to actively participate in national
issues, it doesn’t mean that we aren’t watching what’s going on. A
few of these issues will carry implications for the business community,
and they have been the subject of recent conversation in our Chamber. Click
here for information, courtesy of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce,
on the following governmental issues.
Meet
the Chamber:
Do you have someone in mind that should be a member of the
Chamber? Are you not quite sure how to explain membership to them? Do they
need that little extra push? Send or bring your prospects to
"Meet The Chamber" facilitated by Rich Doud and Brian
Hefner on Wednesday, April 18 from 12-1pm. This
information session will give your prospects a look at what the Chamber
does and will answer any questions they have.
