Happy Tuesday!
Although our thoughts are with our neighbors in Highland Park, we sincerely hope that you enjoyed family and friends over the 4th of July holiday and the amazing fireworks show in Batavia.
We Need a Few More Volunteers on Friday!
The Batavia Chamber still needs a few more volunteers to assist at the entrance/exit gates at Windmill City Fest on Friday evening, July 8 to make sure people are not leaving the festival with alcohol.
The first shift is filled; we hope that you can help us out on the second shift, from 8 to 11pm. Wear your work logo’d wear to promote your company and take advantage of the visibility in front of a large audience. Sign up here. Come support the Chamber and enjoy a wonderful festival!
