Midterm elections are Tuesday November 6. Be patriotic and get out and vote.

A healthy job market— with the lowest unemployment rate in 49 years — coupled with

strong consumer confidence to support consumer spending, the biggest driver of the US

economy. Personal consumption increased at a 4% rate, the strongest since 2014. https://

November, 2018

Ambassador visits and “We Noticed”

The Park Falls Area Chamber of Commerce Ambassadors were

out again in September, spreading more good information about

Park Falls and the Chamber and just having some FUN…..

This month the Ambassadors started out with the 50th anniversary

party at the C.E.P. The ladies in the office are always there to assist

anyone looking for a job.

The next stop was a tour of the Park Falls Fire and Police head-

quarters. Thanks to the departments for showing off some of the

great equipment and awards the departments have been honored

with.

They finished out the day with some snacks and a tour of Baroka’s

Wreaths in Fifield. They do so much more than just Christmas

Wreaths out there !!!!

WE NOTICED

Please send in your recommendations to the Chamber for the next member to be recognized.

The Ambassadors and I will be out with new locations.

Chamber Connection November, 2018

Being a member of the Chamber of Commerce is a great way to get your business connected

with other businesses as well as with customers. A century ago there was only 40 US cities

that had a Chamber. Today there are more than 7,000 Chambers, Boards of trade and desig-

nated non profits advancing the interest of the communities. The numbers show that being in

a dedicated and driven Chamber results are driven.

What is a Chamber of Commerce? It is a partnership between professional people and

businesses. This is a voluntary partnership designed to better the quality of life in a communi-

ty and advance the business in the marketplace. Over the last year we have been listening and

reacting to the feedback we are getting. You have seen many changes over the year and about

to see many more……

As a chamber works to improve the quality of life and the economy in an area it does it with

these objectives in mind:

Help the members grow and prosper

Increase the opportunities for employment in the area

Work for an orderly expansion of the economy

Bring excitement to the residents so they feel rejuvenated in the community.

Promote and provide education to the membership

Connect the students and business owns so that they can grow together.

GREAT Things to COME…….. Just wait…...
