Basically if we all pitched in a bit and created a venue say... at the Peterborough Festival of Lights, or the park by the Silver Bean over lunch hour or see if we could ally our selves with the Farmer's Market (Support local business) and basically just have an opportunity to showcase our businesses to the people of the city of Peterborough together united. If its not with the festival of lights or something, we could see if we could get some "entertainment"... I say we should go for it! People already flock to the Farmer's Market and the Festival of Lights, why not join up with them in a cooperative fashion or adopt a similar model for ourselves.
I was given an idea today by Winston from Joint Ventures that I thought was brilliant. Each month I am going to offer a contest draw to active members, of a $100 gift certificate to a restaurant in Peterborough.
If you attend one meeting, you will get one entry into the draw. If you attend both meetings you will get 2 entries into the draw. The draw will be held at the After Hours PBN meeting each month. This will start in June.
Does anyone like this idea?
We could meet at the zoo,or Beavermead Park-under the picnic shelter(in case of rain).
Everyone could bring their favourite dish or dessert for a potluck meal.
