The Watseka Area Chamber of Commerce is finalizing plans for their annual Summer Picnic. The picnic is this Friday, August 11, 2006, on the lot between Hear Here and Promises in downtown Watseka. Meals will be served from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm. This year’s menu is a jumbo hotdog or pork burger, chips, and a drink for only $2.50 each. Additional sandwiches, chips, or drinks are available for an extra charge. Tickets are available at the Chamber office until August 10, 2006. At this price, the picnic is affordable for everyone! What a great way to show your appreciation to your employees, co-workers, friends, or customers. Advance tickets are strongly encouraged, but not required.

For the second year, the Chamber will offer a delivery service. A minimum of 6 meals are required for free delivery. Contact the Chamber office to set up your delivery.

The picnic is sponsored in part by: Watseka Area Chamber of Commerce, Big R, First Trust & Savings Bank, Iroquois Insurance, Main Street Gifts, Sugar Creek Care Center, Personal Finance Company, Sheldon Health Care Center, Watseka Rehab & Health Care Center, Sumner National Bank, Promises, Canady Labs, Times-Republic, and Sugar & Spice.
