Business After 5's are held from 5-7 pm.  This event gives you the opportunity to talk about your business, and have fun while networking with other businesses.  Hosts can expect approximately 40-50 attendees, and are responsible for providing the location, appetizers, a cash bar or non-alcoholic beverages, and a door prize.  If you would like to take advantage of this opportunity, but have limitations, you can sponsor a Business After 5 with a Chamber member as co-host.  By sharing the cost, you will receive the same benefits!  We are looking to make these "bigger and better" this year, so don't be afraid to make your event memorable - invite prospective members and clients, create a theme for your event or share a new product or service.

If you are not able to host an event, you can always get exposure for your business by donating a door prize which will be given out at a BA5.
If you would like to take advantage of these great opportunities, please get in touch with Ann Lebel at alebel@portlandregion.com or
772-2811 ext 223 as soon as possible so you don't miss your chance - first come, first served!

The Westbrook Community Chamber held their final event of the season on June 28 - a "Business@Breakfast" at Tee n Tee Golfland, located at 25 Bridgton Road.  Attendees networked, enjoyed a catered breakfast, and moved out to the driving range where they hit balls and picked up tips from PGA pro Jack Kelley.
