The Sooke Region Chamber of Commerce would like to extend an invitation to all Sooke business owners, to attend a free seminar on the evening of Wednesday, September 18: Essential Business Strategies for Sooke Business Owners. You do NOT need to be a Chamber member to attend, although you have to have a valid business licence issued from the District of Sooke.

Bring your questions and your business cards! This is a great opportunity to learn, network and connect!

After a brief introduction to Sooke’s new CAO, Norm McInnis, there will be one speaker from the Chamber’s benefit plan who will be talking about three new free tools (human resources, legal and accounting) being rolled out to plan holders. That will be followed by a presentation from a representative of the Canadian Pension Plan. The evening will close with an open Q&A where local business owners can benefit from the knowledge and skills of a room filled like-minded business owners.

There’s no cost to attend, and the Chamber will be providing appetizers and non-alcoholic drinks. Registration is required, and it’s first come first serve.

• Registration: Because space is limited, registration is required. The event is first-come-first-served. To register, email the Chamber (info@sookeregionchamber.com) or call 250-642-6112 to be added to the confirmed guest list.
• Location: Volunteer Fire Fighter’s Lounge, Fire Hall at 2225 Otter Point Rd
• Time: Doors open at 5:30 pm, seminar starts at 6:00
• Cost: Free, but no-shows will be charged $15

If you would like to bring a business partner or colleague, they too can also be added to the list with your registration, just let them know.

NOTE: If you need to cancel, please let the Chamber know so they can give your spot to another business owner. Because the Chamber is absorbing the cost of food, any “no-shows” who did not give notice will be invoiced $15 to cover those costs. The Chamber will send all registered attendees a reminder email one week before the event.
