PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

WELCOME TO THE AJAX-PICKERING BOARD OF TRADE!

It is my pleasure to introduce you to our Board of Trade.  Over 500 businesses of varying size and diversity make up the Ajax-Pickering Board of Trade, which is managed by a 16-member volunteer Board of Directors (Council) that reflects that diversity.

By joining our Board, you and your organization will have full advantage of the many membership benefits we offer. These include:

• monthly networking events where there is an opportunity promote your business in 30 seconds;
• mini-trade shows at our networking events;
• educational and informative sessions which are an important aspect of our business and of particular value to members;
• a weekly e-news Bulletin which has proven to be a beneficial medium to communicate member events and discount offers, as well as news from the Ontario and Canadian Chambers of Commerce; and
• our newly created quarterly newsletter aptly named Bulletin by Mail. 

Along with these specific benefits, there is much more available to you through our Board, from many industry-specific events to volunteer opportunities on our various committees.

Kathy McKay, our Executive Director or any member of the staff or the Board would be delighted to provide you with any additional information you may require in making your decision to join our dynamic group.  Visit the “Calendar of Events” portion of our website, as we would love to have you as our guest at our next event.  

We are committed to our members and to being the Voice of Business in Ajax and Pickering. Thank you for your interest.  We look forward to meeting you.

Sincerely,

Don Terry, President
On behalf of the Council
