It’s All About The Golf!!

The 18th Annual East Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce Spring Golf Outing is all set for Friday, June 5th at the Mallard Golf Club. This event is a major “Social Networking” event for our Chamber Members and their guests. We would love to have you join us for a great day of fun. Not only will you get to golf The Mallard’s great 9 hole course, but you will be treated to a wonderful lunch, a fabulous golfer gift, door prizes, a team photo, soft drinks (there is a cash bar of course) and a great day with some great people. We are still looking for some teams of 4 to fill out the scramble. If you would like to play, but don’t have a team, just let us know and we can put together a team for you. The Chamber Golf Outing is a great way to promote your business product or name to many golfers from throughout the area. We have Hole Sponsorship’s available to give your business exposure on the day of the event $150/hole, $75/half hole, as well as recognition in a thank you ad printed in our local newspaper & the Chamber e-capsule after the event. Please contact me at the Chamber Office if you would be interested in sponsoring the Spring Golf Outing. We are also accepting items for our golfer door prize drawings. If you would like to donate please mail your donation to the Chamber at P.O. Box 137, East Jordan, MI 49727 or they can be dropped off at the Chamber Office, 100 Main Street, by Friday, May 29th.

Thank you for supporting one of the Chamber’s major fund-raising events that helps our organization continue to maintain a full-time office, market the area and our business memberships.
