BOB PETCHER FMB Chamber business members held the 2009 Island Expo at DiamondHead Beach Resort last year. This year, they are bringing their informative event to Bay Oaks.

The Greater Fort Myers Beach Area Chamber of Commerce will hold its 2011 Business Expo at Bay Oaks Recreational Center on Sunday, Jan. 16, 2011.

The event encourages chamber business members a chance to present their business to Beach residents and visitors in a new arena. Last year, the chamber held the expo at DiamondHead Beach Resort.

For a $75 registration fee and $50 business-related door prize donation, the participant will have extensive advertising and publicity prior to the event; registration table and two chairs for the event; 10 by 10 foot display area; door prize registration slips; on-site roaming master of ceremonies; microphone time to announce prize drawing at own booth; microphone interview with mast of ceremonies to plug business; and ongoing children’s activities.

The business vendor is asked to provide the following: table cover, signs/display, brochures and the aforementioned $50 door prize donation for the hourly drawings.

There will be no admission charge to the event. Space is limited, so chamber businesses are encouraged to promote their business.
