| Greetings! |
For those that attended, I hope you enjoyed Regency Newcastle as our new meeting location. Of course there are going to be pro's and con's with each location. The new location certainly did not scare anyone off as we had a great turnout. Please join us at our October meeting as Sherril Huff, King County Elections Director, will be making an appropriate visit based on the time of the year.
Please note below are upcoming events, especially the two different Candidate Forums scheduled for mid October. Our 6th Annual Diamond Awards Luncheon is scheduled for November 18th. Mark your calendars now and please, please, please print off a form and nominate somebody deserving. They will appreciate the gesture and you will feel great! Thank you for your continued support of the Newcastle Chamber of Commerce. |
