President's Message Greetings from the Chamber

---

President’s Message Greetings from the Chamber - with the increasing good weather trend, comes great plans for growing our local community! Our current Chamber board of directors is committed to working with the City of Surrey on the densification plan for downtown Cloverdale. We are excited to see what lies ahead for the old Safeway site and how we can work together to ensure the businesses in the downtown area are being heard and represented. We would also like to talk to the Parks and Recreation department at the City, to hear what their long term plans are for the Cloverdale Fairgrounds site. We are ready and willing to work in partnership on ideas that would be beneficial to all who reside and work in Cloverdale. Our board is excited to be working closely with the Cloverdale BIA on all 2015 events that bring people and business into Cloverdale area such as Rodeo Days, Doors Open Event, Blueberry Festival and the Santa Parade. We hope you will consider sponsoring these events and supporting the great efforts of the many volunteers that pull together these wonderful festivities. Does Cloverdale need a new “brand”? What do you think about claiming Cloverdale as the “Blueberry Capital of Canada”? We want to hear from you – call or email us with your thoughts.
