Regarding Safe Trick-or-Treat... |
|
|
We are still in need of some adult volunteers to help the QHS S Club with traffic control. Call (530) 394-0541 or email us at info@quincychamber.com if you're interested in helping keep this important family event safe for all our kids!
If your business is planning on handing out candy, hosting a haunted house, or anything else during Safe Trick-or-Treat and you want to be included on our free map, give us a call or email us by Friday, October 20th! |

Speaking of Mugshot Mondays... |
|
|
|
Wow! Our Mugshot Mondays really took off! Want to be included? This opportunity is only available to Chamber Members through December and then we'll be switching things up again!
Simply send us a photo of you (you can include your team, coworkers, friends, family, pets, whomever) at your business with a mug of your choice. Also send us a brief blurb about you and/or your business. Here are a few ideas: When did you start your business? How long have you lived here? What is your favorite thing about living in Plumas County? Tell us a brief story, your favorite joke (keep it clean!), or a motto you live by. Make it fun and make it interesting!
Want to participate but need help? Give us a call at (530) 394-0541 or email us at info@quincychamber.com and we'd be happy to take the photo for you or share some other ideas! |
