Operation Thank You & Business After Hours on Thursday
It's Operation Thank You week, and we are so excited! Chamber staff members have been busy preparing your membership packet and volunteers will be stopping by your business on Thursday, December 6 to deliver them and wish you "Happy Holidays."
Please join us for our Business After Hours holiday party, "Let's Paint the Town Red...and Green!" from 4:30-6:30PM on Thursday on the third floor of the Commerce Center.
Chamber's Online Store
If you're still looking for a holiday gift, head on over to the Chamber's new online store. We have a few Mason City items for sale including a Mr. Toot ornament, Mr. Toot lapel pin and a Mason City afghan blanket. You can have these items shipped, or swing by the Chamber to pick up during regular office hours.
If you're still looking for ideas, please consider giving Chamber Bucks this holiday season!
The following highlights (and more!) will be addressed at the presentation:
Board a catamaran for an exciting excursion to the Great Barrier Reef
Tour the Sydney Opera House, then take a dinner cruise in Sydney Harbor
Visit Australia’s Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Center
Get up close and personal with cuddly koalas and native crocodiles at Hartley’s Croc Farm.
Cruise New Zealand’s beautiful Milford Sound
Partake in a behind-the-scenes tour of a family-operated sheep farm
Enjoy a home-cooked meal with a New Zealand family

Picture Day - January 17
Picture Day is Thursday, January 17 and you don't want to miss it! Kick-off the new year with a great-looking, professional photo. Christy Adams from Best Impressions Photography will be at the Commerce Center taking professional headshots for our members. Reflections Salon will also be on-site for optional last-minute hair (and makeup) touch-ups!
Whether it's for one person, or a whole office, we will work to accommodate you. Click here for more information and contact Allyson with questions.
Looking for some healthy holiday recipes? We all know the holidays can be food-centered, so instead of having to resist all of the sweets and go hungry, replace that tray of cookies with one of these healthy, yet tasty options.
