Business Expo 2008!
October 1, 2008 11 a.m. –7 p.m.
Dear Members and Potential Exhibitor,
We are very excited to bring you our 2nd annual Business Expo featuring products and services from businesses throughout Manistee County and the surrounding areas. This is your opportunity to showcase your products and services in a professional atmosphere, in the state of the art Events Center at the Little River Casino and Resort. This is the premier event to participate in! We have made some changes to the event this year based on feedback we received after the event last year and I think you’ll be very pleased with the schedule.
Scheduled for Wednesday, October 1, 2008, the event kicks off at 11:00 a.m. and runs until 7 p.m. and it is FREE to the public! At noon, a special business luncheon will be held featuring a guest speaker discussing topical business issues. Tickets for this 1 ½ hour event are $25. Stay tuned for the speaker announcement.
At 5 o’clock, a special Business After Hours will be held in conjunction with the Expo. This will allow the public and members to attend the show after regular business hours and network with members in a more casual atmosphere. Attendees will pay the regular $5.00 fee to attend the After Hours event which includes hors d’oeuvres and a $5.00 rack card for use on the Casino floor in addition to networking, door prizes and a special $1,000 cash Chamber Member Drawing.
This is the event to be at this year for your business. If you are interested in a booth, please contact the Chamber at 231-723-2575 or email us at chamber@manistee.com to have a complete packet with all the information you need: contract, agenda, etc. mailed out to you. Or, stop by and pick one up. Booths went fast last year so don’t delay!
There is also a new schedule for sponsorship opportunities at various levels which will give you additional exposure for your business. If you have any questions regarding booth space, sponsorships or anything else related please feel free to contact me directly. I look forward to seeing you at the Expo!
Sincerely,
Camille Kocsis
