On March 27th, we had to announce the unfortunate decision that our Annual Spring Expo with fantastic vendors, organizations, entertainment, and community representatives was cancelled.

BUT... the good news is we are still planning to have the Show & Shine and the Expo Dance! Keep tuned for all details - here or on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/MackenzieBCChamber/
