Bob Pierce from the Chelsea Area Chamber of Commerce spoke to the group last Monday. He talked about the successful golf outing to raise funds for the chamber and the upcoming Smoke and Ale Festival at the fairgrounds on Oct. 8.
He reported that the trend for young people nowadays is for affordable one-time events without long-term commitments. He reported the business climate in Chelsea was stable and that an influx of population into the area would be needed for it to expand. Many businesses have opportunities for employment.
