Welcome to the Greater Woodstock Chamber of Commerce (GWCC) ‘s new column. We will bring you chamber news here in the River Valley Sun every other month. If you are looking for regular updates on what’s happening, please sign up for our mailing list at www.gwcc.ca.
Tuesday Night Market
Have you been to the third annual Tuesday Night Market yet? The GWCC invites you to catch the last one of the season on Tuesday, Sept. 17, from 5 to 8 p.m. Mark your calendar! Find us along the boardwalk on King Street, beside the beautiful Meduxnekeag River and Woodstock’s Downtown Farm Market.
Come for supper, mingle with friends, take in some tunes from local musicians, pop into the farm market and enjoy a stroll along our picturesque downtown boardwalk. Shop for fresh produce, fabulous plants, delicious baked goods, unique artist treasures like pottery and ironworks, and chat with various other vendors.
Festival of Lights Planning
Once the market wraps up, we will be full steam ahead with our Festival of Lights planning. Is it too soon to mention Christmas? Nah, it’s not like we said that horrible S word, snow! We are excited about something new and cannot keep it in any longer. A drone light show is coming! Yes, you heard it here first: a River Valley Sun exclusive. It’s going to be AMAZING, and your pets will thank us! Mark your calendars for the Santa Claus parade, local shopping, and Woodstock’s first drone light show.

The person who gathers facts after we brainstorm, ensures we get legible meeting minutes, handles business mailouts, and, most importantly, collects your membership fees so we can continue the work we do. Please meet Hannah Mollegaard. You might recognize her from her appearances at events around town and her various business ventures.
