Your Low Down // What You Need to Know Low
40th Anniversary BBQ Bash - SUCCESS!

A celebration that will go down in history. On Thursday, July 27th, we celebrated 40 years of the Vaughan Chamber of Commerce and saw the highest attendance EVER RECORDED at our annual BBQ with over 400 attendees. This milestone wouldn't have been possible to reach without our outstanding members who continue to drive us onward and upward! 

We enjoyed a sunny afternoon with 17 vendor booths, performances and entertainment, a delicious BBQ lunch, Kids Zone, Ice Cream truck and so much more! 

Special shout-out to Mary Patrick from Dave & Buster's. We can't thank our Venue Sponsor, Dave & Buster's Vaughan, enough for their hospitality. They truly went above and beyond helping with the execution of this event. 

Thank you again to all of our sponsors for contributing to the event's success: Arcadia Academy of Music, City of Vaughan, Dave & Buster's, Enbridge, Fortinos, Hero Certified Burgers, Longo's, Luxe Balloon, Reptilia, Siderno Quality Meat, Social Know How Inc., Summer Fresh Salads.
