As always, attendees of the Networking Breakfast (third Thursday of each month), sponsored by Rose Hills Memorial Park & Mortuary, not only enjoy a great breakfast buffet and valuable networking with dozens of others, but also introduce themselves one at a time with a 30-second “elevator pitch.” In addition, they have a chance to win one of multiple gifts donated by members and attendees for a business card drawing, one of which is a free three-minute Business Spotlight, this month by last month’s winner.
Tickets to the breakfast, which runs from 7:30 a.m. – 9 a.m., are $20 when paid by the Tuesday in advance of the breakfast program ($25 at the door) and discounted to $15 for Chamber members who pay by the previous Tuesday ($20 at the door for Chamber members). Those who pay by the previous Friday will get their name and contact information on the popular Hot Sheet listing that is handed out to all attendees of the breakfast. No charge for those holding a Chamber All Access Pass.
Tickets: 626-447-2159 or in the “Shop” area at www.ArcadiaCaChamber.org, or at Chamber office, 388 W. Huntington Drive, Arcadia, during regular business hours.
