WMAT&MA Show once again was a great success. The Chamber voted last year to sponsor a dinner for all of the exhibitors that were present at the show, all they had to do was present a coupon and they received a complimentary dinner from the Adrian Chamber of Commerce. Member Don Arndt voiced his appreciation to the chamber on how well received it was from the exhibitors at the show this year. The chamber voted to do this appreciation dinner for the exhibitors again next year.
