The Qualicum Beach Chamber of Commerce will 

be closed for Christmas break from December 23rd to January 2nd inclusive. 

We hope all our members have a happy holiday and a prosperous 2017! 

The Chamber is throwing out a challenge for our next Member Meeting - get ready for the first QBCOC Elevator Speech contest! This is going to be a fun evening hosted by Oceanside Pizza; enjoy some great pizza and craft beer, and compete to win the soon-to-be highly coveted 'Best Darn Elevator Pitch Presenter on Central Vancouver Island' award. 

Now there are rules and there will be judges - please see:

Guidelines for your Awesome Elevator Speech for guidance.

January 18th at 5:30 - so you have plenty of time to prepare. Tickets are $15 and include a delicious pizza buffet and one beverage (beer or wine included). Call soon to book as space will be limited - 250.752.0960 - and good luck!

Limited opportunities are available to local businesses who would like to reach out to this audience by sponsoring a dining table. For just $100 this sponsorship provides a bottle of red and bottle of white wine for the 10 diners seated at your table, as well as the exclusive opportunity to put your promotional material and/or goodies out.

Please let Evelyn know by January 20, 2017 if you would like to participate. 250-752-0960
