On Tuesday February 16 from 10:00am to 3:30pm the Chamber is hosting a workshop in conjunction with FWC for the benefit of our members to explore how your business can benefit from visitors of the paddling trail which runs along our coast.
This workshop is being offered to businesses in Keaton Beach, Steinhatchee, Suwannee, Ecofina and Horseshoe Beach.
In such a time of economic instability we need to tap into all resources available to us.
It is exciting to me that FWC has taken an interest in Steinhatchee and our surrounding coastline and is eager to help.
Mark your calendar and then call me to reserve your seat and so we can plan for lunch.
