Chamber Chat 2-14-14

El Dorado Springs Captains of Commerce…Here is your newest Chamber Chat!

·         If you missed the February Luncheon yesterday, you missed a really good lunch from Master Chef Todd Leonard and a super speaker!  As a matter-of-fact I  forgot to thank Jack Daniel for helping procure her for us. Sara Rains gave us a very interesting presentation about the life-cycle of our refuse and better-practices in recycling efforts.  We had several comments saying she was one of the best speakers we’ve had to date.  Thanks Brother Jack!   If you have an idea for a speaker please let us know. Next month we have Dan Robinson, Lucas Oil Speedway General Manager.

·         The Missouri Chamber of Commerce has hired Senator Christopher “Kit” Bond to lobby state lawmakers to come up with a better, more responsible plan for Medicaid expansion in Missouri. Bond is greatly concerned that if Missouri isn’t actively seeking a solution rural hospitals won’t survive the plan as it is projected to be instituted as of now. We will keep you posted of any changes or news updates.

·         Don’t’ forget Cedar County Farm Bureau is hosting “Thank a Farmer” Banquet next Thursday the 20th at 6pm at Stockton Christian Church. Call Maranda Taylor for more info 876-5902.

Make it a great day!
