Hello Kathy,
This month we wish you all a safe and happy holiday season.
There are still some events happening in Buellton and the surrounding communities, so get out and enjoy all there is to do and see.
Some of our businesses and members are offering discounts for gift giving, so scroll through and take a look at those deals out there.
We hope you continue to support our local businesses and shop local. They can't survive without us, so be sure to look locally before jumping online or going elsewhere.
Our Chamber is thankful for your continued support and we look forward to serving you in the new year.
Merry Christmas and best wishes for a healthy and happy new year!

Leadership Circle
A new membership structure
| |
|
We have designed 5 new levels of membership that include a variety of benefits at each level. Rather than reaching out for sponsorship every time there is an event, we have developed ways for you to participate at every level. We feel this will streamline the process, save time, and provide you with the exposure you choose.
You will receive a letter with your invoice, when your membership comes due. This will list the levels of membership you can choose from. Just let us know what level fits your business. Please feel free to reach out at any time with questions. We look forward to serving you in a more simplified way and hope you find a level that works for your business.

Thank you ExxonMobil for signing up for the
SILVER LEVEL in our Leadership Circle.

December
Stormwater Tip of the Month
Recycle your Christmas tree by placing it curbside or cutting it up and putting it into your green
waste bin along with your holiday wreath. Don’t forget to remove all decorations including
tinsel, lights, ornaments, tree stands, and metal frames before placing your tree on the curb or
in the green waste bin. Glass ornaments cannot be placed in the recycling bin so be sure to
donate ornaments in good condition and discard others in the trash. Visit your waste disposal
provider’s website (Waste Management or Marborg) for more information.
| |
Water Conservation Tip of the Month
Turn sprinklers off and take advantage of some natural irrigation. Try and keep your irrigation controller off from one storm to the next during the rainy season. Enjoy the rain!
