Chamber Hosts 24th Annual Community Expo

Spend the morning at the Orland Park Area Chamber of Commerce Community Expo and learn what products and services are available in the community.  The Chamber’s 24th Annual will be held at Carl Sandburg High School, 13300 S. LaGrange Road on Saturday, October 19 from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. 

“Keeping the shopping dollars local is a win-win for everyone,” shares Keloryn Putnam Executive Director of the Orland Park Area Chamber of Commerce.  “By keeping our tax dollars local we can all make a difference in our own communities”

The morning’s activities will include the Culinary Corner, which is one of the Expo’s more popular events.  At the Corner, Chamber restaurants and caterers distribute small food samples to attendees.  Another popular activity is Advocate Children’s Hospital Kid’s Fair Extraordinaire.  The Kid’s Fair attracts children of all ages with their healthcare related fun activities.  There will also be clowns, a raffle and local entertainment as well as the individualized activities at the Exhibitor booths.
