Donations are welcome for the Lunch with Santa account and the Fireworks account.  December will come quickly.

 

Dwtn. Revitalization:  Activity will be picking up fairly soon.  Meeting on Aug. 22 at 7:30 p.m.

 

Riverbats Night - approx.  500 tickets were sold, we keep 50% of the profits.  Everything worked out fine and a good time was had by all.  There was a conflict with SCSU - but the Riverbats did a good job of recognizing the St. Joseph Businesses.  Good PA system.

 

Perhaps next year we should do a St. Joseph community night here in St. Joseph.  Present any ideas to Davey or VonPinnon.

 

Membership - we still need people to turn in their membership fees.

 

Millstream Arts Festival - Dotzler - will return to St. Joseph on Sept. 30 from 11 a.m. - 5 p.m.    Will run right down Minnesota Street.  There will be music, art, and food.  CSB wants the community to take more ownership of the event.  We need funds to promote it.  $700 for the digital billboard at 33rd and Division.  The festival committee is asking for the Chamber to support that.  Gunderson - motion to donate $700 - Ehlert - second.  Can we get sponsored by St. Joseph Area Chamber of Commerce.  Motion approved.  Ehlert - this is a great opportunity for the Chamber to capitalize on an event that is already planned.  Next year we should have a booth at the event - perhaps sell turkey legs.  And another event following Millstream in the evening, Oktoberfest or the like to keep people in St. Joseph for a longer period of time.  We can bring 25,000 people to St. Joseph on the Fourth of July - let's do it again in the fall.

 

Announcements - St. Benedicts Monastery doner appreciation event on Friday.

 

Dr. Wetterling - Flashback to 1977 on Thurs. Sept. 13.  Everyone invited.

Respectfully submitted,
 

Alison Brown Bell
Secretary
St. Joseph Area Chamber of Commerce
