Hello everyone.  
 
There are some important things you should know but
first of all, I want to thank you for being a part of this organization.  
Even in this turbulent year, our membership ranks have swelled. We
applaud your entrepreneurial spirit and get-down-to-business attitude.
The biggest news at this end is our new website design and content...and its impact on
being here 24/7 for you.  You can reach us anytime day or night
at your convenience through a variety of online feedback forms.
We invite and welcome input on any matter, good or bad
and will respond at the very most within one business day.
 
To get on with it:
 
1.  We wrote a lengthy letter to City Hall about a number of issues
and the Mayor responded.   It's worth a read...and I encourage your comments
through our feedback page. You can link
here to our letter and City Hall's answer.
2.  Sponsorship...this website expansion and focus brings much more value to
Chamber sponsorships...our goal for 2010 is to exceed your expectations with 
these
3.  Couple of events (shown below) that you can link to our site on for more details.  Look
forward to seeing you.
 
If you take just a few minutes to peruse the site you may find it a great
home base.  While reflecting Chamber info, it is also a great conduit to business news and information, articles and connections to our entire membership.  As a Chamber member we hope you'll make it a tab to your homepage. 
 
Personal regards,
 
 
Bert Loopstra, Manager
Owen Sound & District Chamber of Commerce
