Happy November!

Hi Friends!

Wow, it’s already November and it feels like 2022 just went by in a flash. The next few weeks will go just as quickly with Thanksgiving and the Holidays just around the corner. Things are as active as ever at the Chamber, too with our Hiring Fair next week, all our regular connection opportunities and the Christmas Parade in just a few weeks! I hope you will join us for one or more connection opportunities.

ALSO, make sure to take the time to nominate someone (or yourself!) for a Heroes of Vista Award! Nominations are now open and we want to celebrate all the Heroes of Vista in March 2023!
