On May 25 the Small Business Council celebrated Spring and the benefits of the Chamber at their "Grow With Us" membership recruitment and networking event.  Held at the Chamber, all attendees of this event received a jasmine plant from new member Bull Bay Nursery to take home, plant, and watch grow along with their business.  Any new members who joined at the event also received a goody bag of items donated by SBC board members and a hanging plant from Bull Bay.

All attendees - members old, new, and prospective - welcomed a chance for in-person networking under the Chamber building's porte-cochere.  Drinks were enjoyed, along with a selection of sandwiches and bite-size appetizers.  At one point, a pair of ballroom dancers entertained the gathered crowd with a dance to "Love Was Made for Me & You."  Rounding out the evening, several lucky attendees took home raffle prizes that were offered as part of a business card raffle.

The "Grow With Us" event was sponsored by State Farm - Shane Swan, The Florida Health Insurance Exchange, Salco Contracting, and Kenney Consulting, LLC.

Anyone with interest in joining the Chamber is encouraged to give us a call at 407-847-3174.  Current members who would like to get involved with the Small Business Council can contact Christina at cpilkington@theosceolachamber.com.
