MEMBERSHIP RENEWALS:
Just a little reminder that the 2003-2004 Membership fees are due by November 30th to ensure your spot in the Explore Bobcaygeon 2004 publication.

THE LONGER YOU WAIT, THE LESS YOU SAVE:
Bring the New Year in right by starting your healthy lifestyle today! Chamber members, their employees and families can take advantage of great savings on an individual year membership at the Forbert Memorial Pool. A year membership is only $94.16 (which is a savings of over $140.00 off a regularly priced membership) and the Chamber’s membership year runs from November 3rd, 2003 to November 3, 2004, so the longer you wait to join, the less money you save. By taking advantage of the deal now, the membership fee works out to only $8.56 a month! A small price to pay to look and feel better and improve your health. If you have any questions, please call us at 738-2202.

WHO WILL PAY FOR YOUR BUSINESS EXPENSES IF YOU CAN’T WORK?:
If your employee benefit plan doesn’t offer Business Overhead Benefits to owners who become disabled, take a look at your Chamber of Commerce Group Insurance Plan. This plan offers rare stability and a contemporary range of benefit options. Choose from employee and dependent life

insurance, health and dental, disability, a retirement savings plan and Business Overhead Benefits. There’s coverage for businesses with as few as a single employee and no industry restrictions. So, if you want to make sure your business overhead is covered - even if you can’t work - call 1-800-665-3365.

DRIVING & WINTER:
Stay alert, slow down and stay in control - three key elements to safe winter driving. Drive according to current road and weather conditions. Keep a safe distance between you and the vehicle in front of you. Avoid situations where you may have to brake suddenly on a slippery surface. Get your vehicle ready with a maintenance check up and have the tires and tire pressure checked. Check weather and travel conditions. Don’t take chances.

NEXT CHAMBER UPDATE:
Dec 12th. If you have info or an ad please call by Tues. Dec. 9th at noon.
