Chamber looks to past and future

By Kate Jackman-Atkinson The Neepawa Banner Thanks to some successful events last year, the Neepawa and District Chamber of Commerce annual general meeting, held last week, was cause for optimism. Held over the lunch hour last Thursday, about 23 people attended the meeting to hear about the organization’s activities in 2014 as well as plans for the upcoming year. Chamber president Troy Mutch explained that the goal of the chamber is to further the interests of local businesses, which includes advocating for businesses as well as creating more activities within the town that will be of benefit. He noted that events such as the Neepawa Fair, Canada Day celebrations, winter parade and pub night all created traffic through the town, hopefully leading to increased sales for area businesses. Mutch stressed the importance of volunteers in his report, noting that their volunteer base has become depleted. He noted that they need to get more service groups involved, saying, “Many hands make light work.” He added that they are hoping to host some social and networking events in the new year as well as talking to business owners about their needs. Mutch also provided an update about this year’s Neepawa Fair May 29 to 31. He said that Saturn Shows will be returning with midway rides and based on last year’s success, are planning on bringing more attractions. The fair will be at a different location and Mutch said they are looking at the Fairgrounds. They are hoping to add some new events, such as a ball tournament. One award was given out at this year’s AGM, the volunteer of the year award. This year’s recipient was all of the Neepawa and Area Lily Festival volunteers. Continued on page 2
