Join us tomorrow, Tuesday, October 2nd, for PerkUp! our signature morning networking, at *Key’s Restaurant* in their upstairs meeting room from 7:30-9:00am. There is no charge to attend; participants pay for their breakfast. This event brings together over 20 White Bear Area business leaders interested in connecting with other Chamber members. As a new venue, we will provide lead slips to help target potential customers. Also, participants will be given the opportunity to solicit business by signing up for ten minute info commercials. This is one more activity provided by your Chamber that has the potential to provide enormous value at no additional cost to you. Thursday, October 4th is the Professional Development Series at the Country Inn & Suites in Vadnais Heights. This month you can learn "Employee Engagement: How to boost moral, increase productivity, and transform your culture". We begin at 7:30 am with networking, followed by the speaker from 8 - 9am.These are always great classes that are provided as a benefit to you as a chamber member. We hope to see you there!

CLICK HERE Adopt-A-Hwy Help Beautify Our Area Saturday, October 20th 9:00 am The Chamber has had the privilege of "adopting "a 2 mile stretch of Highway 61 for several years. Each year, a team of volunteers come together to pick up the trash along Hwy 61, from County Road F to Hwy 96 East. It's amazing how just 2 or 3 hours of your time can make such a big difference. This year, we will meet at the Chamber office - review a short safety video, pick up vests, gloves, bags etc. and then head out with a team. We have 3 - 4 teams that are assigned an area. After the cleanup, we all enjoy a tasty lunch (provided). If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Maureen at 651-429-8593 or email maureen@whitebearchamber.com.
