Venue for July 29th meeting

Good morning all! We have confirmed a venue for our Thursday July 29th meeting with Minister of Finance Colin Hansen. We will be at the Happy Landing Restaurant in 100 Mile from 2:30 until 4pm on July 29th.

Members are invited to preregister with me at 250-395-6124 or manager@southcariboochamber.org.

It looks as though we are going to have a good turn-out for what will be, I'm sure, an interesting discussion about the HST and building a strong BC economy. Please register with me before Tuesday afternoon.

A busy month of July at the Chamber

For our first official blog posting, I thought I should start with reporting on the recent successes of the past week.

The Hot July Nights car and bike show kicked off last Friday evening with great success. The three day event saw over 200 entries and attracted many curious onlookers to view the wide variety of cars and bikes on display. See the Hot July Nights website for photos of this year's fabulous event.

After the excitement of the Hot July Nights weekend, Chamber members were invited on Wednesday July 14 to a Business After Hours function at the new Century 21 Seaside Realty (100 Mile) office on Alder. Hosts Ingrid and Gerhard Berger had arranged for a local artist, Vivian Zuba, to display her work at the event.

Coming up at the end of this month, on Thursday July 29, Finance Minister Colin Hansen will be speaking to Chamber members on the HST. Keep an eye out in the next few days for the venue to be announced.

In the meantime, enjoy the fantastic Cariboo summer!
