Ribbon Cutting For Creme de la Creme

The Collinsville Chamber of Commerce welcomed a new business venture with multiple shop owners in a single building. Creme de la Creme is now open at 918 W. Main. Those in the Feb. 10th ribbon cutting photo are Standing L-R: Janee Golden, Tammy Scott, Co-owners Sharon Reed and Tessa Epps, Pam Polk, Fawn Ozug, Wanda Nyburg, and Susan Babbitt. Kneeling: Ashley Ryder and Chandra Hakanson.

Collinsville Chamber of Commerce members and guests at Thursday's luncheon meet took a brief self-assessment quiz and then split pretty evenly into 4 character type groups (expressive, driver, analytical and stablizer). Guest speaker Ron Moore (from the Dale Carnegie Training organization) then highlighted ways the different types of people interact with each other in the context of how to improve your business interface with workers and customers.

Special Olympics & Post-Prom Party

Only 5 of 14 special education students have been sponsored so far for the Special Olympics at Stillwater in May. The post-prom party will provide a safe (alcohol-free) environment following the April 14th CHS Prom.
