60th Anniversary Celebration

2007 marks the Burlington Chamber's 60th anniversary. To help commemorate the event, we're holding a special celebration at the October 17 Business After 5. Along with a Business Showcase, this Business after 5 will feature a tribute to our sustaining members, images of the last 60 years of business in Burlington and special entertainment. Showcase tables are available; why not give your table a 1940s theme. There are also plenty of inexpensive sponsorship opportunities available. If you're interested in sponsoring this special event, please contact Keith at 905-639-0174 ext 7212.
