Frighteningly Good News for October 31 …

Chamber Will Intro New Info Vehicle Next Friday … Here’s a sample.

In our 2008 Member Survey 75% of you told us you preferred to receive Chamber news electronically. With that in mind we will introduce a twice monthly “blog post” that will publish the first and third Fridays of the month. We will use this vehicle to announce upcoming Chamber events and programming as well as late-breaking news from the business community. Our printed publication, “Haven View,” will be published quarterly. We do have several reminders we will share today, and then the new blog format will roll out next Friday, November 7. Be sure to check the post each time we publish. You’ll find surprises and discounts (be sure to read all the way to the end) that will make your read even more enjoyable. Now for a sample of the new format:
