Hey Fellow Chamber Members,

Come to the January “Meet and Eat” meeting. Chicken Gumbo
and dessert will be served during the regular business meeting,
which will be a brief update from all members present, so here’s
your chance to pitch your business or update us all on what’s
going on in your business world.

Following the regular meeting will be a presentation for the
newly forming GV Job Creation/Retention Council. If you do not
wish to participate, you can come for the regular meeting and then
feel free to leave; it could be very informational though, so you
might want to consider staying to see what it’s all about.

GARDEN VALLEY JOB CREATION/RETENTION COUNCIL
STRATEGIC “GAME PLAN” MEETING
ALL ARE INVITED

While the Chamber and its council will implement the plan when
it is complete, input from all citizens is requested. The council needs
to be sure all interests are included in the plan. A second meeting
reviewing the results of the plan will be held in February in time to
complete it. The plan will then become the foundation for inclusion
in the updated Southwestern Idaho Comprehensive Economic
Development Strategy update necessary for grant applications.

All are invited. Please RSVP to the Garden Valley Chamber at
208-462-5003. We need your name, phone number and email
address so we can plan properly and contact everyone regarding
the outcomes.

Both John Cottingham and I sincerely hope you all can make it!

Diane Caughlin, Co President
Greater Garden Valley area Chamber of Commerce

Working Together To: “Strengthen economic development while
maintaining our pristine quality of life in Garden Valley by promoting
local businesses and advocating for a positive, proactive and
progressive community.”
