January 31st, 2009 Annual Chamber Banquet ~ Make your plans now

The Arcadia Valley Chamber of Commerce Banquet will be sizzling this year with a Caribbean/Jamaican Theme. Come dressed in your casual, tropical island attire and enjoy the fun as we celebrate the installation of this years board members. Please print the attached flyer and plan to join us for this year's banquet featuring "Pantheon Pros" a very exciting steel drum band and all of the ambiance of the tropics. With winter upon us, it will be a nice break to at least WISH for the warmer climates. Please get your advanced tickets as quickly as possible in order to allow us to give the caterer an accurate count. The Chamber is working very hard at putting together a very enjoyable evening. Please show your support by attending the banquet. Also, any items that you would like to contribute to the silent auction would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to seeing all of you there. You may download a flyer right here.
