If you missed last Friday’s P83 party at the Peoria Sports Complex, you missed out on a terrific evening! Better mark your calendar right now for the next one set for Friday, June 3rd. It’s a great evening for the whole family so plan to attend.
You’re probably noticing some great additions coming to the P83 Entertainment District. In the old Fox & Hound, we have Modern Round joining us. They are a virtual shooting lounge with great entertainment, food and things to do - http://www.modernround.com/ check them out here and see what’s coming!
We also have a new restaurant place opening soon (they’re hoping for end of June) called Headquarters Grill/Bar/Sushi that is across the street from Harkins Theaters. If you’ve been around here for a while you’ll know the spot as the old Krispy Kreme building. The two guys who own it are from New Jersey and plan on making all their own food from scratch. This looks to be a very fun place and I can’t wait for them to open so we can have some Chamber events there.
You may have also noticed that Corner Bakery Café is no more – rumor has it that a great new pizza place is headed for there and I’ve also heard that the old Satara building is about to have a new restaurant/bar coming in that is supposed to be fantastic. Keep your eyes peeled to our newsletter to learn about their openings. P83 is really going to be THE place in the West Valley to have a great time!
I just came back from attending the Senior Recognition Event for the MET Professional Academy (Medical, Engineering & Technology) at Peoria High School. I’ve had the privilege of sitting on the Advisory Committee for this incredible program and this is their first class of graduating seniors. The student accomplishments shared with us today make me very proud to be associated with MET. The many awards this group has received is amazing and to hear their plans for the future had to make their parents and teachers proud. I guess today’s students have found things more meaningful than playing sports and chasing girls. Who knew??
Make sure you look at all the upcoming events on the Events Calendar and listed to the right – our Chamber has a lot going on that you will definitely want to be a part of that’s designed to help each of your businesses grow and prosper. Make it a point to join us!
