Looking forward to this one!

We have several events coming up on the Chamber Calendar, and now's the time to plan for them!

First, we're back at The Winery at Wolf Creek this Thursday for our Monthly Member Meeting with Deanna Russo of Leverage Up, LLC discussing "Successful Networking on LinkedIn." Lunch orders from Firehouse Tavern Copley are available now and must be placed by the end of the day on Wednesday.

Then in May, we have a fun new way to network with our Network N' Roll event - it's speed networking with bunco! This is a ticketed event with prizes and it's coming up quickly so be sure to follow the ticket link below for more information. (Never played bunco before? We'll teach you at the event, plus there will be a quick tutorial during our Monthly Member Meeting!)

Plus, there are two events from the Collaborative Chambers Alliance that both require registration, the monthly Virtual Speed Networking and the Spring Networking Mega Mixer - the Mega Mixers only happen twice a year so plan for that one while you can!

Information about all of these events and more can be found on our website at thecopleychamber.com.

We look forward to seeing you at one (or all) of them soon!

It was a blast working with Little Black Logo back in 2020 and we are so proud of our logo!!!!

Todays letter is: L
This logo is almost 3 1/2 years “old” and I STILL love it! There is truly nothing I could change about it!
Leverage Up, LLC is an amazing business owned by Deanna Russo!

This logo is an example of WHY font choice is SO IMPORTANT! The font (in my opinion) is the star of this logo! It is a taller font giving you the image of “going up” or “growing” which gives us a piece of what her business does, helping with GROWTH!
