Wow!!! In the last two days we've received over $3000 in additional donations to the Chamber Challenge to put us at a grand total of $15,575. And there's still time to get YOUR donation included. Donations can be made by calling 310/652-4990 or through our secure website (link below).
Chamber Day/Eve is Wednesday, May 7, and we've still got some spots left on the boats and some seats left at the tables for Chamber Evening at the Aquarium of the Pacific. And we've certainly got room for you on the Challenge. The great thing about the Challenge is that this is essentially unrestricted money for our Catalina Chamber. And when we all band together as a dive community, we can help keep our Chamber strong.
So we want to not only thank our latest contributors, but also remind you that we're approaching the finish line but we're not done yet. So . . . WHO'S NEXT?????
