Horse races aren’t the only game that may be found at the business expo. In 2021, participants had the opportunity to play cornhole and other games while networking.
The Moses Lake Business Expo provides an opportunity for area businesses to connect with one another as well as potential customers. Networking opportunities such as the expo can help businesses grow and thrive by increasing the participating businesses’ reach in the communities they serve.
MOSES LAKE — You can “find your pot of gold” at this year’s Moses Lake Business Expo, organized by the Moses Lake Chamber of Commerce.
“The Moses Lake Business Expo is a great opportunity to have our local businesses feature their products and services,” said Chamber Executive Director Debbie Doran-Martinez. “I often hear attendees say ‘I didn’t know we had that in Moses Lake or Grant County,’ so it’s a great event to stay up to date on what our businesses and organizations offer in our area.”
According to a Moses Lake Chamber of Commerce press release, the expo is an annual event designed to showcase local businesses from Moses Lake and the surrounding areas, and will be held at the Grant County Fairgrounds on Tuesday, March 15 - two days before St. Patrick’s Day — in the Commercial Building from 4-7 p.m.
The theme this year is St. Patrick’s Day, and attendees are invited to wear green, or their best St. Patrick’s Day outfit, and compete for a number of prizes, including an Oculus virtual reality headset, the press release said.
Sponsors include Samaritan Healthcare, VYVE Broadband, Confluence Health, Local Tel Communications, Guild Mortgage, Signs Now, Bud Clary, Michael’s on the Lake, Salon Envy, and premier sponsor Horizon Credit Union.
According to the chamber, there is still space at the expo for interested businesses. For more information, contact Lori Robbins at the chamber at 509-765-7888 for more information or to reserve a booth.
“The event is open to the public and we encourage everyone to come out and visit our local businesses,” the press release said.
