NETWORKING IN THE MORNING DECEMBER 5th

Networking in the Morning is held every other month, the first Tuesday of even months. It's our Before Hours event at which you can meet and get to know fellow chamber members.  Pitch Partners is what sets it apart from any other event we hold.  

We don't hold a luncheon in December, so grab some business cards and come out on Tuesday morning, December 5th at the beautiful new offices of RE/MAX All Pro in Bloomingdale.
HOLIDAY SOCIAL DECEMBER 7th
Each year in early December, the Holiday Social Committee plans and holds an event to gather members together, have some food, drink, and fun and help build or strengthen business relationships. 

December 7th IS THE DAY...and...

WE WANT YOU! There are so many ways for you to participate!! Attend

START 2018 WITH A BANG: A PROGRESSIVE LUNCH
The beginning of a New Year gives us a fresh outlook and new hope for increased business.  Start it off with a bang at the January 18th (a Thursday) luncheon. We'll be gathering with other chambers for a Progressive luncheon at Bloomingdale Golf Club. 

Will you start off your year with us?


WIB EVENTS: PAST + FUTURE

There were 158 happy, networking people who came out for the November Polka Dot Progressive luncheon -- and 27 of them were men! The energy in the air is always amazing! 

Our next WIB event will be a multi-chamber Speed Networking lunch called "Network Your Heart Out" on January 24th. It's a good time for you to meet a lot of people in a little time, face to face. Mark your calendar...
