October 2023

Hello Chamber Members,

Fall is upon us, the leaves are turning color and we have a change here in the Chamber Office.

I am the new Manager here and through my past employment in Vanderhoof there are many of you that I know and many more that I would like to meet.

I am Shelley Funk and with my past experience of being a business owner with my husband Dave, Manager of the Village Inn, and working for Four Rivers Co-op I have had the chance to meet many people in Vanderhoof.

We have lived here for 25 yrs, and would not consider living anywhere else.

I am excited to be part of the Chamber of Commerce and hope that I can be of assistance to the businesses. If you have something that you would like to share with other business like a sale, an up coming event that you are hosting or just some new seasonal stock that you would like to promote. Please contact myself so that we can spread the word to the rest of the businesses.

I am here Monday to Friday 8:30 to 2:30 and would love it if you could drop by so we could have a chat about what we can do to help your business.

Please make sure to check out the posters for upcoming events, Rio Tinto and Coastal Gas Link/SA Energy. (see below)

Also see the Link for Nominations for the 2023 Business Excellence Awards and don't forget about our Pumpkin Walk. Still time to book your spot and help supports this great event.

Talk soon,

Shelley
