Michele complimented Lisa for the design of the Rotary page on the chamber website, she uses it as an example to new members. Tea-holic located on Kimberly, off Placentia Ave. is really struggling, if we could visit them, it would really help! The chamber proudly hosts 80 events per year & we can be a part of them.
