For the first time since March of 2020, the Chamber hosted its first in-person Business After Hours event on Dec. 13 at Four Fathers Brewing Co.
It was a great opportunity for our Members to meet safely and reconnect with old friends and new ones.
We also took this opportunity to ask a few our guests the following question:
What will you remember the most about the pandemic?
“Probably how well we can pivot. People can pivot and basically take a look at things and do things differently.” - Tony Rossel, Best Version Media
“I will remember missing community and just being able to meet with people and see faces and connect in-person,” - Heid Brouwer, Galt Osteopathy
“Endless Zoom meetings and learning how to facilitate meetings. It looks a lot easier than it really is. And that the number of kilometres I’ve driven has been cut in half. We’ve discovered some creative solutions and so much work is now being done at home.” - Murray Smith, Blue Canoe Consulting
“How poorly the government handled this. They contradicted themselves a lot initially with what you should do – wear a mask, don’t wear a mask, wear two masks, or get the AstraZeneca shot, or no you don’t need the AstraZeneca shot. They tried too hard without putting any thought into it and it just never seemed to work. I will remember that indecisiveness – everything’s fine, or no it’s not. They didn’t lead well, and I will always remember how poorly they led us through this.” - Rick Gallinger, Top-Notch Concierge
“I will remember how much I missed being around family and people. Sometimes it makes us realize how grateful we should be when everything is good because we take a lot of things for granted, and we really need to be more thankful and more aware and enjoy every moment that we can.” - Maggie Herrington, Top-North Concierge
“I just feel so fortunate that we were able to continue to stay open and look after our customers. I feel like we’ve been really lucky, - Laurie Herald, Cambridge Tirecraft
“The fact we couldn’t have in-person social events. For me, I miss that interaction and I’m so excited that we are slowly getting back to reality. But the worst part has been looking at your family and friends losing jobs and having to stay at home. I have two stepchildren and the virtual learning was really hard for them. I think it was struggle for them and the teacher so I’m happy they are back in the classroom.” - Stephanie Jane, Marketing Manager at Four Fathers Brewing Co.
