Meadville-Western Crawford County Chamber of Commerce

We love when our members have fun events and this looks like a fantastic one! Be sure to check it out this weekend! We hope for good weather! We had fun at last weekend's Second Saturday, although it was quite a damp day. There is always something fun to do in our downtown. Be sure to also mark your calendars for First Fridays & Second Saturdays from May through September!

If you are still looking for a great last minute Mother's Day gift idea, check out Earth, Wind, and Wire Studio and Rock Shop. Tina, James and their fellow artisans have a unique selection you won't find anywhere else.

Another fun punchcard idea from several of our members & downtown friends to use during Second Saturday Community Markets this summer starting this Saturday!!!! Why would you NOT want to get one of these cards to support these local businesses and get amazing food downtown on even one of these fun Saturday events? Get your cards and see you Saturday! Or start early this Friday night for the First Friday Cookie Walk downtown too!! So much happening in our downtown!

We are so excited for our good friends at Inspire Salon & Spa(formerly Cathy's Beauty Salon)! They have expanded, not only their space, but their line of services offered! Be sure to follow their social media pages and look for their new website soon! Stop by their new location to wish them well, meet some new staff members, make your appointment or get a gift card for someone who deserves some pampering or just for yourself!!

Happy New Year everyone!! We hope you all had a safe but festive holiday. Please take a look at this week's Connector email blast to see what our local Chamber businesses are doing and/or promoting. The holidays may be over but we all need to continue to shop at your local stores and eat at/takeout from your local restaurants and eateries.

We love when our members think outside the box!! This looks like fun from our good friends at Whispering Pines Golf Course & Avalanche Xpress! Be sure to check this out!! Looks like a a fun family night, girls night out, date night or no occasion needed fun night!
