North Frontenac Business Dinner

The second annual North Frontenac Township business dinner was last Friday night (April 17).

It was a chance for business owners to get to know each other and their businesses.

Guest speakers included local MP Scott Reid, Mayor Gerry Lichty, Deputy Mayor Roy Huetl, Councillor John Inglis; Chair of the Economic Development Task Force. Shaunis Sakell, business advisor from Frontenac Business Services, Richard Allen from Manager of Economic Development at the County of Frontenac rounded out the official speakers

Lindsay & Claire; of Tinker Sisters Workshop, also spoke on behalf of the youth movement in the business community.

Seeing the milestone awards given out to the local businesses in the area was certainly one of my favourite parts of the evening! If you are a local business and interested in attending this event or celebrating your milestone with the Community, you can contact the township. To book a seat for you and a guest next year, keep and eye on the township Facebook page.
