All that Glitters Gala & Online Auction

thanks for participating
Well, you did it again Chamber supporters!
We had to make the decision to move our Gala Auction online and you all came right along with us!
It has been inspiring to see the support we received from our community. The funds raised from the auction will help the Chamber to accomplish its mission
and commitment to promoting the economic and social prosperity of Parksville & District.
It seems like everyday we are faced with uncertainty and challenges and somehow we continue to pull together to support this exceptional community.
As a Chamber, we are proud of the work we do in the community and after seeing the auction results, we are even more energized than ever! 
A special thank you to all our supporters:

Support Local Movement

Support Local 3
 
 

Now more than ever we encourage you to join the Support Local movement.

Buy and Dine Local. Oceanside businesses and non profit organizations need our support. 

Kim Burden, Executive Director says 'By shopping at our locally owned stores and using our locally owned service providers we support our local charities and events; we provide employment for local residents and taxes for the great services we receive from local government. It is locally owned businesses and not for profit organizations that make the Parksville-Qualicum Beach Region the spectacular place to Live, Work & Play that it is.'

Remember, we're all in this together and we want to continue to live in a vibrant and prosperous community.

Together...We can do it!

Kim Burden, Executive Director Chambers of Commerce talks about the challenges in rebounding from the pandemic.

How has the pandemic affected small business and what are they challenged with as they re-open?Kim for contest
 
There has been disruption to the local economy in varying degrees and business sectors. From what I am hearing and observing in the community, the challenges are consistent; availability of staff, increased regulations and protocols, rebuilding a customer/client base after closures, ensuring staff and customers are safe and comfortable in their environment. 
 
How has your experience in the community prepared you to deal with crisis?
 
I’ll start out by saying, I don’t believe anything could have prepared us for the ongoing crisis we face. However, dealing with crisis in general, I have been very fortunate over the years to have developed a network of local leaders, business influencers and stakeholders in our community and this has often facilitated working together on projects and initiatives. During the crisis, those relationships allowed me to make connections and continue to provide me the opportunity to support local business.
