This Week's Live Lunch with the Chamber
|
|
Yesterday we had Lunch with the Chamber on Facebook LIVE with Gena Haidar, the owner of Cedar Rose Café, a fabulous hidden gem. They are located at 1130 D Street, Unit 10, just down the hall from Mamma Ramona's.
Gena, who you may have known as the Pita Diva, offers an extensive variety of amazing specialty drinks and homemade goodies, and also has a large, comfortable space for meetings, classes and telework. See the video for more information; the caption includes contact info, links to socials, hours, etc.

Cheers of Ramona will host our next networking mixer on Thursday, September 15! As usual, we will have food, beverages, networking, opportunity drawings, and FUN!
Attending a mixer is a great opportunity to get exposure for your business! Can’t attend but want to participate? Donating to our opportunity drawings is a great way to advertise because your contribution is seen and your business name is announced multiple times at the mixer. We are happy to accept baskets or individual items/gift certificates. You can drop off items at our office on weekdays 10am- 4pm up until the day of the event. Many thanks to Ramona Disposal Service and Jewelry World & Loan for your early donations!
If you would like to attend, please RSVP; you can email or call us, or prepay online:
