The Colton Chamber of Commerce recently concluded its final networking event of the year, which also doubled as the 2023 Toy Drive. This event, which was well-attended by members of the Chamber, celebrated the support and contributions of its members throughout the year.
The festive gathering had a dual purpose: to offer a platform for members to share information about their businesses or community activities, and to collect toys for a charitable cause. Each attendee was given two minutes to speak, fostering a sense of community and collaboration among local business leaders.
In a generous display of holiday spirit, all toys collected during the event were donated to the Colton Lions Club. These toys are set to be distributed back to the community on December 16, 2023, ensuring a brighter holiday season for many local families.
The event was marked by an atmosphere of camaraderie and festive cheer. Attendees enjoyed light refreshments and took numerous photographs, commemorating the occasion. The Chamber also took a moment to acknowledge and applaud its successes over the past year, highlighting the collective achievements of its members.
Additionally, the Chamber reminded attendees of its ongoing "Rise n Shine" meetings. These networking sessions are typically held on the first Tuesday of each month. However, attendees were advised to stay updated on any changes due to holidays by following the Chamber on Facebook or visiting their website at www.coltonchamberofcommerce.org.
The Chamber's event not only served as a networking opportunity but also reinforced the community's spirit of giving and collaboration. As the year comes to a close, the Colton Chamber of Commerce stands out as a beacon of community engagement and business leadership.
