Happy Holidays Chamber members,
I’m always surprised how quickly the holidays roll around. What a fun time of year to enjoy your family and friends. I hope you were able to make it to the Business After Hours at Tailgaiters and Pastime, we enjoyed great food and company in their new and remodeled venues. Our next Business After Hours will be at Nana Kate’s on the 15th of December from 5-7pm! Don’t miss the Selahbration coming up on Friday, December 2nd, it’s festive hometown fun for kids of every age. Please join us for the Selah Chamber General Meeting on November 30th, we are excited to have the Selah High School host us this month (at the SHS Library). Come hear what the Vikings are up to and how to get more involved with the schools. While you are humming around Selah take note of those special homes and businesses that have taken extra care to show their Christmas spirit. Back by popular demand is the Chambers Christmas lighting contest! We love to give out all sorts of prizes for those that demonstrate their lighting talents. Please jot down the address and email, post on facebook or call your entry in to Glenda at the Chamber by December 16th. Can’t wait to see how many nominations come in this year! Please have a wonderful Christmas and enjoy all the season has to offer. God Bless,
Jean Brown

Selah Chamber Business Trick or Treat BIGGEST EVER!
Thank you so much to all of the businesses that participated
in the Business Trick or Treat held on Monday, Oct. 31st from 4-
6pm. Because of you, this year was one of the biggest
participation years of businesses & kids!
Some of the feed back I’ve heard is that some businesses run
out of candy. It’s hard to tell each business how much to buy
due to your specific location of your business. The Selah
Chamber (located at the Civic Center) generally purchases
10-12 bags (BIG BAGS) and I had 1 bag left this year (we give
out 2 pieces of candy). It’s always better to buy too much
(then you can return unopened bags). Whether you run out
or not, we truly appreciate your participation and I know the
kids do too!!
We would like to send out a very special THANK YOU to all of
the soldier volunteer crossing guards from the Yakima Training
Center. Your presence and your service is very much
appreciated
THANK YOU!! See you next year! Selah Chamber of Commerce Phone: 698-7303
