Greetings:
This is an exciting time of year for the chamber. We are in the process of printing a new
directory. If you have been thinking about joining the chamber but haven't done so yet, this is the time to join. We currently have over 300 chamber members. This new directory will have a new format, size and style. It will not only be our chamber directory but a welcome guide as well. See more information below.
We are also gearing up for another great year of
major events. You will not want to miss out on these time honored traditions. We added a new event last year and you'll definitely want to mark your calendar for this event again. "Berthoud Snowfest, Home of the Colorado Snow Sculpting Competition" will be the week of December 11-16. More information is in this newsletter.
Volunteers are always needed at our major events. If you have a heart for volunteering, please give us a call. There are lots of opportunities in many areas where your talents can shine. Plus, you'll meet lots of interesting people. What a great way to get involved in your community.
Deanne Mulvihill
Executive Director
