Thank You to Our 125th Anniversary Sponsors

Ian McLean
President + CEO
Greater Kitchener Waterloo Chamber of Commerce

In May 2011 your Greater Kitchener Waterloo Chamber of Commerce began a year of celebrations to mark out 125th Anniversary of helping Business Building Community. I wanted to take a moment and thank all of our 125th Anniversary sponsors whose generosity has helped make our anniversary celebrations an amazing success.

We have 4 anniversary events planned in our schedule and they are all sure to be spectacular. We are honoured to have Frank McKenna, former Premier of New Brunswick, Ambassador to the United States and current Vice Chair of Toronto-Dominion Bank, to speak to our members. More details on Mr. McKenna's engagement will follow, but needless to say we are all excited to have him take time our of his busy schedule to come and speak.

Our 125th Anniversary Publication should be fascinating and a great networking event. Best of all it's FREE! And remember our Finale Celebration is set for May 2012 and we plan to have a great speak. it will certainly be an exciting 6 months ahead filled with celebrations, new member reward programs all focused on Business Building Community. We are also planning additional events throughout the coming year with more information to come in the days ahead.

If you haven't seen the 125th Anniversary video yet be sure to head on over to the Chamber of Commerce YouTube channel to view both parts of the video that helps detail some of the highlights of our long history. It's an interesting view of how the Chamber's existence has helped shape Waterloo Region into one of the most economically stable and diverse regions in Canada.

Once again, thank you to all of our sponsors and we can't wait to see everyone take part in our continued celebrations of 125 years of Chamber community support.
