The Annual General Meeting for the Carman and Community Chamber of Commerce will be slightly different this year as the Board of Directors has decided to combine it with a fundraiser.

The Blizzardfest Committee has hosted a couple of wine tasting events as fundraisers and their next one will take place following the Chamber's AGM on April 20th. Chamber President Travis Rintoul says they are excited about a variety of new opportunities in 2012 including the launch of their new website, a new logo for the organization, and working with Nikki Bartley as the newly appointed Executive Director.

Rintoul tells us in 2012 the Chamber of Commerce also hopes to grow and expand with a focus on member recruitment.  



He says instead of hosting a banquet style dinner and meeting like in the past, this new approach will be held at the Carman Golf and Country Club on April 20th starting at 6 p.m.
