Chamber Spark: New Member Event 2023 Recap

Reflecting on an incredible evening at our very first Chamber Spark Event! Thank you to everyone who joined us, and a heartfelt thanks to board members and event hosts Danielle and Amanda for setting the stage and guiding us through a dynamic agenda. Special shoutout to Nuran from Nurish Kitchen for the mouthwatering snacks and to John Dunstall from JJ’s On The Docks for the fantastic wine – we feel incredibly fortunate! 

We reviewed some of many benefits of being Chamber member (Advocacy – Benefits – Connections!) but the individual conversations and connections really stole the show! Exploring the avenues of collaboration, networking, and shared success was a highlight. Here’s to forging strong community ties and eagerly anticipating the opportunities that 2024 will bring!
