MORE DETAILS: FIVE STAR EXPO
It's almost here - the 21st annual Five Star Business & Health Expo will be February 17, 2017 at Medinah Shrine Center, Addison. At this writing, we have some exhibitor booths left and we believe it will definitely raise the visibility of your business as well as help you forge some new business relationships.

Can't have a booth? Give us 250 flyers or menus or brochures..even promo items...and we'll stuff them in the attendee "swag bags" distributed at the Expo. Cost is $50 and deadline is February 10th.

We THANK the sponsors for this event:
REPUBLIC SERVICES - Super Star Sponsor
Sir Speedy Print, Signs, Marketing
Blooming Color
1st Family Dental
Daily Herald Media Group
Daily Herald Business Ledger
Addison Independent

Watch for more information coming up soon on our FOOD SPONSORS.

MULTI-CHAMBER SPRING LUNCHEON + EXPO @ BOBAK'S

Ea ch year, our 
chamber is invited to participate in a multi-chamber networking extravaganza. There will be 16 chambers in attendance and up to 500 attendees at the March 16th Luncheon and Expo at Bobak's in Woodridge.  

This is a valuable event to attend but we are limited in how many seats we can offer. Also, there is an opportunity to have an Expo table there, but we are limited to just two. 

See all the info and sign up soon, as the seats will be allocated elsewhere if we don't have people signed up, each round.
