17th Annual Business Expo headed to region
MANSFIELD – The Richland Area Chamber & Economic Development invites the public to attend their 17th Annual Business Expo from 10 a.m. -4 p.m. March 21 at the Richland County Fairgrounds.
The Expo will feature a solar eclipse theme.
Booth space is sold out once again, with over 100 local businesses and non-profit organizations exhibiting. A special ribbon cutting with local officials will be held at 9:45 a.m. to open the event.
Admission and parking are free, and the Business Expo is open to the general public. Individual booths will be offering prizes, samples, and giveaways along with prize drawings held by the chamber. A canned food drive is also being held and every attendee who brings a can will receive an entry into a special prize drawing.
“The expo is the perfect chance for the public to interact with local businesses. The solar eclipse theme has been creating excitement, and everyone loves prizes and giveaways,” said Lisa Duckworth, the chamber’s program and events manager.
She adds: “We encourage everyone to stop by, even if they just have a few minutes before work or during their lunch break. We are also excited to feature food trucks.”
The expo, presented by Hamilton Insurance Group, is sponsored by
nearly 30 local businesses including Dream Huge Realty, Heartland Design Concepts, New Mercy Outreach, and YWCA Child Care Resource & Referral.
