A Message from our Chamber's President
|

Dear NACC Team,
Norco Horseweek is almost here, it begins on Friday, April 12th and continues until Sunday, April 21st. This event was established in 1970 and donates all profits to local community groups. Norco Horseweek is still open for vendors, and volunteers. I myself will be volunteering to setup, sell tickets, and judge the obstacle course. This is a great opportunity to promote your business and become involved with the community as it brings in over 8000 people a year. There are a wide variety of activities to volunteer for including: golf cart rides, t-shirt sales, tear-down, and more!
I hope you all have the opportunity to take part in this ongoing Norco tradition while growing your presence in the community. If you have any questions on how to get involved you may contact Tammy Norman at 909-240-4407, or
