Hello Chamber Members,

I hope you are enjoying our weather lately. It sure is nice to see snow on the local mountains and the impact it has on our drought.

Tomorrow, Tuesday, January 17, we will have our New Member Reception at Courtyard of Rancho Cucamonga to welcome all the new members that joined us the past few months. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to interact with our new members, learn about their business and make new connections. We have 27 confirmed new members joining us. Courtyard hotel has a nice atmosphere with good food and drinks for all to enjoy. We look forward to seeing you there to give our new members a warm welcome.

We have Heather Dowell from Break Ice Marketing who will bring us marketing trends and ideas that you can use in your business. She will discuss ways that local business can gain more leads, customers, and sales.
