A Ribbon Cutting and Chamber Mixer was held at Broecker Funeral Home on March 7. Owners Dave and Pat Broecker are shown above cutting the ribbon. Approxi- mately 50 Chamber members welcomed this new business to town. The Chamber now offers a special “Mystery Member” monetary award to the 10th person that greets a particular member. That award was won by Judy Beisel. Sue Hahn’s Cruise One supports a member drawing at each Chamber Mixer. Every member’s name is placed in a basket. If your name is drawn, you receive $50. You must be present to win. If you are not present, that $50 rolls over to the next Mixer and is added to the next drawing, which is $250 at the next Chamber Mixer drawing. Gregory’s and Inn on the Creek will host its next Chamber Mixer, 5:30 p.m. April 24 at Gregory’s. (photo by Tim Fleischer)
