Chair's Corner

Donna Hill



Helllooooo Family,

What an amazing month we had with more treats to come. We celebrated International Women’s Month with the Conferencia de la Mujer (Women's Conference)… Congratulations ladies. We had a very successful Diversity Lunch and Learn. Thanks to all who attended our sponsor- Learn for Life and our Instructor-Angela Daughtry from CASA.

April brings April Fool’s Day, World Autism Awareness Day, and Arbor Day (I am sure I missed something).  We at the Chamber have a full calendar so check the website and sign up for everything.    

Did you hear?  The Flea Market is BACK AT THE AV FAIRGROUNDS (in my echo voice).  Yasssss!!!!!  Get your booth, sign up for the community stage, be a sponsor, sign up to volunteer, and get your dollars ready,-it’s time to shop. All these things (except for your dollars) can be done by calling our office. 

Finally, I have been thinking about my mother a lot, she passed in 2009. I would like to remind you to keep your loved ones close. Be hard to anger and easy to forgive. Tomorrow is not promised. 
 
Blessings
How Can I Help?
