From BOWLING GREEN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
The Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce is postponing the Business Expo that was being planned for March 12.
The Business Council Project Team made the recommendation to the Executive Board to postpone the Business Expo. Many factors were taken into consideration and we listened to what our business community was conveying to us as a large part of this decision.
Mary Hinkelman, Executive Director of the Chamber stated: “We had a great core of sponsors and participants committed and everything was coming together really well. We just started getting the feedback from businesses who wanted to participate, but were reluctant due to the chance we would have to cancel closer to the event. That’s tough for a small business owner to make that investment in marketing materials and merchandise and then not have the opportunity to use them. We all care about keeping the community safe and this has become a part of every decision-making process.”
The Wood County Hospital, The City of Bowling Green, Call of the Cannon, WTOL 11, State Bank and Biggby Coffee were sponsoring the event.
The chamber plans to host to Business Expo later this year and will post more information on specific dates in the coming weeks.
