Newborn Website Features

The Chamber's website - www.whitebearchamber.com - is sporting a redesign! Check it out, set it as your homepage, admire its airy and brighter complexion. Or whatever, it is just a website. But it's our better looking website.

New website features revealed here.

Gopher Football

Played well against Ohio State in the cold and snow brought on at TCF Bank Stadium, but in the end shot themselves in the foot by not playing near-perfect football. It was a mostly entertaining game, however.

This coming Saturday, the Gophers travel to Lincoln, Nebraska to take on the Cornhuskers in a pivotal Big Ten West game. I will be in attendance and can share pictures next week if you would like.
