    The Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors met Oct 1st, 2009 at 7:30 at the VFW Building.

    Street Banners: Our street banners have been installed, well most of them, they look great. We are in the process of possible expansion of more banners if we can get the sizes needed for the additional pole hangers. More later

    BAT: .Our first Quarterly Bat was held Friday Sept. 11th at Wimfield’s on Main. This was a noon luncheon hosted by Kreitler’s Martial Arts. It was a great program. We hope to see a larger attendance at our next noon quarterly BAT. I encourage everyone to bring a prospective new member. Our next meeting will be DEC. 11th at Wimfield’s on Main.

    Highlights: Oct. Business Highlight is the Adrian Community Library. Thanks Patsy for the presentation.

    Farmer’s Market: We have a new location for our Farmer’s Market. It will be located south of Happy Go Lucky convenience store. We feel this will be a good location, and will promote it well prior to opening in April 2010.

    Chamber Cups: Remember we have new Chamber cups and they make great gifts!! (Only $6.00)

    Website: Let us know if you would like to see something new or would like to link your website to the Chambers (At no Charge). Let Elbert know of any changes or additions.

    Sight and Safety Night: The board approved to encourage our members to participate in the upcoming Main St. event Sat. Oct. 31st. All members are invited to set up on Main St. whether your business is located on Main St. or elsewhere, there are plenty of spaces for all.

    Circus: The Chamber sponsored the Family Fun Circus at the Adrian city park on Oct. 19th.
