Chamber Challenge - SEC


As you know, there is a lot of excitement over the University of Missouri entering the Southeastern Conference (SEC). We want to make sure that our business community is ready for the positive impact this will have on your business.

Join Chair Vicki Russell as she leads a discussion on Thursday, January 19 on how you can benefit from the University of Missouri's move to the SEC. We are pleased to welcome University of Missouri Athletic Director Mike Alden and Director of the Missouri Division of Tourism Katie Steele-Danner as we prepare for our new conference. Also, you may have read recently about a new concept called Tiger Town. Greg Steinhoff and Bob Gerding will be on hand to give us a brief update on those plans. After their brief remarks, we will then open up the discussion where you can share ideas you have to welcome our out of town guests.

This event is open to all chamber members and will be held at the Clinton Club in Mizzou Arena. Registration and breakfast will begin at 7:00 am with the program to follow from 7:30 - 8:30 am. The cost is only $15 per person and includes a light continental breakfast. Registrations can be made by calling Kristi Ray at 817-9108 or emailing kray@ColumbiaMOChamber.com.

We hope to see you there!
