With holiday shopping soon to begin, the Greater Taylorville Chamber of Commerce wants to do its part to ensure area shoppers support local businesses.  They are continuing to promote their Chamber gift cards as well as sales events member businesses will hold.  In the meantime, Business After Hours events and new membership show no signs of slowing down. 

The holiday shopping campaign kicks off this coming weekend.  The Chamber’s Board President Krystal Baker says a combination of special offers, Small Town Taylorville’s involvement, and gift cards stand to help members receive lots of business this season.

Those gift cards can be purchased on the Chamber’s website, www.taylorvillechamber.com. 

The Hart Media Group is set to host the next Business After Hours event, which takes place on Wednesday, November 12.  The next such event after that is on December 3.  Kemmerer Village and Cozy Grind Gaming Parlor are teaming up to host that networking session.  (“Jackie”) Jacque Rogers, co-owner of Cozy Grind Gaming Parlor, says the event will include networking games and a way to help those in need ahead of the holidays. 

The Chamber has one new member in SK Walker Photography and Imaging.  The owner, Sharon Walker, already has a local connection through Ameren. 

Krystal Baker and Jacque Rogers appeared as guests on the WTIM Morning Show.
