    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
     
    February 17th, 2017  The Northern Rockies Regional Municipality has proclaimed February 20-24, 2017 Chamber of Commerce Week to recognize the unwavering commitment of the Fort Nelson & District Chamber of Commerce in supporting local businesses, boosting economic development opportunities and providing vital resources for businesses in our community.
    The Fort Nelson & District Chamber of Commerce has been working diligently on behalf of business since 1959.  Whether acting as loyal advocates on hot-button topics, or providing tailored resources to help our members reach that next level, Chambers are experts in “getting business done.”      
    As a member of the BC Chamber and Canadian Chamber networks, we help to create recommendations that are presented to provincial and federal governments.  Recent efforts include our work with Chevron to establish an industry standard local content plan, work with the BC Chamber on forestry, and work with the Canadian Chamber on employer paid health benefits.
    So as B.C. celebrates Chamber Week, don’t miss the opportunity to swing by the Chamber, join in on some Chamber Week events, and celebrate the many ways that B.C.’s Chambers strengthen our communities by getting business done!
    We want to thank our members – without the support of our members we cannot do the work we do.  
    Join us on February 22nd, 2017 at 7:00 pm at the Phoenix Theatre for the Business & Community Excellence Awards.  Help us celebrate the individuals and businesses that go the extra mile for Fort Nelson.
