Each January we publish a special edition of our newsletter which looks back on the previous year. Please check out 2019 in Review (it should download a PDF) for a comprehensive look at what your local Chamber was up to in 2019!
On Wednesday, March 18 the Town of Drumheller gave a live Economic Update featuring members of the Town's Emergency Operations Centre and Mayor Heather Colberg. During the update, Mayor Colberg provided some business tips and ideas to assist and inspire local businesses during this challenging time. The powerpoint slides including her suggestions can be downloaded here.
Has your business made a 'pivot' to stay afloat during this time? If so we would love to hear about it so we can share ideas with the business community. Please email the Chamber with further details.
