With so much uncertainty of what lies ahead in terms of school, the economy and our business landscape, it is more important now than ever to be a member of the Vanderhoof Chamber of Commerce. We sincerely appreciate your membership, and we are here to be your voice. We are navigating change too, but I am confident that our forward thinking and diverse Executive board and our energetic and organized administrative team, will work along side our member businesses to bring forward the issues and initiatives that will help us ride this wave of uncertainty.
One area we are excited for here at the Chamber is the number of new initiatives that now in place and are taking off - #mystreetmyneighbours, #shoplocalsunday, #weareopen. Please check them out and let us know what you think. We want to make sure we are representing you in the community, so if you have an idea for something you'd like I us to do or promote in community.
And remember, one of the important benefits of being a Chamber of Commerce member is that we are here to advocate for the business community to make positive change. One issue that has been brought forward within the region is the process and systems around commercial cardboard recycling. We as a Chamber will be participating in conversations around this issue in the coming weeks. If any of you have any concerns or experiences related to commercial cardboard recycling that you would like to share with us please contact our office.
Enjoy the last few weeks of summer season (if we've even had one really).
And one last thing - many thanks to Cale Toth for his great work in the Chamber office this summer. All the best Cale on your next adventure!
Sincerely,
Michelle Roberge
President
