Meet Katelyn Fitter!

 

Your O’Fallon Chamber will have a new face in the office this summer. Katelyn Fitter, a sophomore at the University of Missouri-Columbia, will be interning at the O’Fallon Chamber, assisting members in setting up their Traffic Catcher Site (or “mini-site”) on the Chamber’s new website, www.ofallonchamber.org, as well as educating members on using the site to its fullest capacity for their business. Katelyn will also be calling members periodically to verify database information and extend event invitations.

Give her a call to say “Hi” or shoot her an email at Katelyn@ofallonchamber.org

O'Fallon
Smoking Ban

The voters spoke and overwhelmingly passed a Smoking Ban in O'Fallon. The O'Fallon Chamber would like to ask a couple of questions of your business about the Smoking Ban. We will ask these questions again a couple of months, after the ban has been in place to track any changes to the answers.

As a reminder, the Smoking Ban takes effect June 16th. For more information on implementing the ban, please visit www.ofallon.mo.us or find a Tip Sheet on the Chamber's homepage, www.ofallonchamber.org.
