Chamber Members:

The Kirkland Chamber Board voted yesterday to join with the Genoa Chamber of Commerce to hold a joint Business Expo on March 10th from 10 AM to 4 PM at Genoa High School.  This joint expo will give your business a chance to greet between 500 to 600 customers in this part of Northern Illinois at the Expo.  The display booth @ the Expo will cost your business $150.00 for the day which is the  same rate paid by the Genoa Chamber members.  More registration information will be comming out as the calendar draws closer to the Expo Date on March 10th.  If you have any questions about the Joint Expo, feel free to give me a call at 815-522-9017 or my e-mail kenbrooks65@hotmail.com.
