Rich’s Stitches & the GRCC

September 27, 2014

GRCC Event

(Rich’s Stitches at Schmooza Palooza hosted by the GRCC over the summer)

We really enjoy being involved with our community and what better way to do so than to connect with other local businesses and proactively attending events held by the Greater Richmond Chamber. We had the pleasure of attending one of their events recently, focused on connecting businesses through a semi informal cocktail hour. The event took place on Thursday, Sept. 25th at the Bank of America Center on Main St.

From their website
“Business After Hours is a casual, after-work social featuring tabletop exhibits “

This was a well attended event that made us realize that there is plenty of businesses out there to connect with and refer to. An integral part of being a business owner is to make these connections for future prospects and referrals. What we really enjoy the GRCC in particular is that it really puts its members first. This is not our first event nor do we think it is going to be our last. We are proud members of the GRCC and we couldn’t be more excited to be a part of such a great organization.
