President's Corner
Tonight’s the Night! Make sure you come by Slick’s Garage after work today for our Chamber Mixer. It’s from 5:00 to 7:00pm and our Host Raina is planning on putting out some tasty munchies and offering us Happy Hour Drink Specials. This is a fantastic family owned business, so come join us and support them.
There’s a new business here in Peoria called Doggie District Pet Resort located at 8028 W. Thunderbird. They are having a Grand Opening Celebration & Ribbon Cutting this coming Saturday (2/25) with all kinds of pet related exhibits and fun things. I’ll be there at 10:30am with Peoria Councilman, Mike Finn, to do the ribbon cutting. Why not grab your dog and come join us?
Another big event coming up Saturday is the 24th Annual Peoria Diamond Club Spring Training Charity Game at the Peoria Sports Complex. Through the generosity of the San Diego Padres and the Seattle Mariners, the Peoria Diamond Club each year is the recipient of all proceeds from this one game. The money raised supports grants the Diamond Club award to local organizations who provide programs to assist children throughout the West Valley. If you only make one spring training game this season, make this one! Game time is at 1:10pm, so come out and enjoy a great day at the ballpark and know that your support is making a difference in someone’s life.

Mark your calendar: How to Meet a Deadline

A two a.m., caffeine-rushed, half-asleep essay could still get you an “A” in high school or college, but that tactic will not help secure your job in the workforce. Don’t risk it. Here are a few easy tips to help you meet deadlines.
