Another very busy month for the Prior Lake Chamber of Commerce. Networking, ribbon cuttings, and donating

money were some of the many highlights of the month! The proceeds of $30,000 from the highly successful VI-

KINGS Polaris Winterfest were given out to some of our local non-profits at the monthly membership meeting

which was held at McKenna Crossing. At the meeting we learned about what all these respected nonprofits do

for our community. It was truly a honor to hear how they help so many people and how we as business profes-

sionals and business owners can help them help so many more. If you have time please visit our website and

look up all the great nonprofits.

Our weekly networking groups are growing and are making many connections within their business and per-

sonal networks. These groups are designed for anyone that is seeking new business and wants a deeper under-

standing of the business or product being offered. Within these weekly group meeting is a one-minute commer-

cial about each business which sparks many great conversations that may lead to your next business relation-

ship or even your next sale. Two different groups to choose from - Tuesday morning or Thursday at noon.

Please reach out to chamber office to find out if your category is available in the group.

Big ribbon cuttings took place as well. R.O.C.K open their doors for a ribbon cutting and we packed backpacks

while we were there. Pro Service Automotive had a ribbon cutting in their brand new building in Prior Lake.

gg Boutique Pretty Things moved to a new bigger location in downtown and hosted their ribbon cutting. Lots of

great events coming up - check out the weekly calendar. Have a great month and hope to see you soon!
