Connect, reflect on the past three decades at Olds Chamber events on May 26 and June 16

A couple of opportunities to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Olds & District Chamber of Commerce are coming up in the next month or so.

The first one is a come and go event at Our Flames Lounge from 6pm until 8:30 on May 26th. It is free but the Chamber would like those interested in attending to RSVP by clicking here by May 21st.

Murray Elliott with the Olds Chamber highlights the fact that they are also hoping former board members or folks in the community can share any of the organization’s old memorabilia. He says “there is a bit of a shortage particulars for the Chamber since 1996. You can just also reach out to that [email protected] and I would make sure we could get together and if you would like to lend any items that you have related to the Chamber, that would be great.”

The other upcoming 30th anniversary Olds Chamber event will be a wine and cheese social at the Mountain View Museum & Archives on June 16th.
