Batavia Chamber Breakfast Club is back in person The Batavia Chamber listens, and they hear their members! Zoom networking worked great during the pandemic to keep in touch with each other. However, many members said that they missed inperson relationship building. The good news is that the networking events have returned to “normal.” Evening networking events are a great way to make connections and build relationships, but evenings aren’t always the best time for everyone. Please join the chamber for morning networking and a hot buffet breakfast. Benefit from building professional relationships and gain access to new opportunities.

Attendees will be asked to present a two-minute selfintroduction and will be given business cards of all those in attendance for ongoing networking. Advanced registration is recommended. Walk-ins are welcome. $10 advanced registration, $15 at the door. Batavia Chamber Breakfast Club is always held on the second Wednesday of each month at the Geneva Comfort Inn and Suites. Mark your calendar now! Wed., July 14, 8–9am Wed., Aug. 11, 8–9am
