ATTENTION BUSINESS OWNERS/OPERATORS

The EDC is compiling information for the 2012 edition of the Tourism Guide/Business Directory.  This directory is distributed to tourism booths from the Manitoba border to Niagara Falls, ON.   It will be available in local municipal/band offices, marinas and various local businesses and motels.  Please contact Kelli at (705) 865-2646 ext. 224 if you have opened a new business in the Township within the last two years so that we can include your information in the directory section, or if you would like to purchase an advertisement in the upcoming edition.

Message from the Chair:

January 2011

As newly appointed Chairperson for the Township of Sables-Spanish Rivers Economic Development committee, I look forward to seeing the committee's goals come to fruition. I also look forward to brainstorming new, creative ideas for the area.
 

As a former business owner and long time resident I know the importance of economic development. Whether it is a seasonal farmer's market or attracting new long term businesses to town, it all spells employment for the local residents. 
 

As a member of this committee, I will have the chance to work with like minded Individuals to investigate new opportunities for a sustainable future so that more residents have the choice to stay if they choose.
 

Upon review of the Economic Development Strategic Plan, I can see there are many opportunities to build on our current resources, such as creating closer relationships with local communities. Together we can have a stronger voice in government by pooling funds /ideas to develop greater opportunities for long term employment.

Sincerely,

Susan Sonnenburg
Chair of Sables-Spanish Rivers Economic Development
