The Summer Fun Continues On!

We have had quite an eventful past few months and, much to our delight, it does not look like it’ll be slowing down any time soon! We had the honor of celebrating Hillcrest Pet Hospital’s new owner, Dr. Odet Kaspari-Chiriboga DVM, with a ribbon cutting ceremony. And just one week afterward we were thrilled to help Copy Network celebrate its 30-year anniversary with another ribbon cutting ceremony. We may be a small town but our milestones are grand! Let’s not forget our Speed Networking Mixer yesterday … we thought we would switch it up a little and add some different elements to our mixers. A big thank you to Think Real Estate for hosting this mixer and for providing the delicious catering truck. Fun (while networking) was had by all!

Speaking of events, our postponed 7th Annual Montrose Craft Beer Fest is back on this year and it is just a few weeks away! Here in Montrose, we appreciate the small and independent brewers, the craftsmen and women who share their brewing passion and we cannot wait to share those with you! We will be hosting the Montrose Craft Beer Fest on Sunday, July 24 from noon to 4 p.m. on the 2200 block of Honolulu Avenue. We have over 20 local breweries lined up and over 10 local restaurants ready to offer you food samples to pair with your drinks. Jackson Mankowski will be playing live music and there will be lawn games and two photo booths to add to your experience. For more details and to purchase tickets (presale: $49, designated driver: $25), visit Brewfest.MontroseChamber.org. We hope to see you there!
