we had an awesome, amazing day yesterday. You know, it's

(02:04):
Palm Sunday and we enjoyed a church. Not only did
we go to our regular church to the Foundry, but
we also got to celebrate a huge milestone yesterday where
Church of the Highlands in Opelaika after the five hundred
and thirty three Sundays officially not moved into their new facility,
which happens to be in Ward five and opal IDAs

(02:24):
and so Tod and I went to their service yesterday
as well.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Well good for you, and we were just talking about
their new campus. I saw it over an industrial park
last week. I didn't realize it was there, so it
was kind of like a well, looker here, I didn't
realize they had a new campus over here.

Speaker 5 (02:41):
Yeah it is. It was actually, you know, we we're
good friends with no quarters and they of course built
the neighborhood that we live in, and they worked out
an agreement with Church of the Highlands and so that
was the former I think what it planned to be
Hidden Lakes property, and it's now Church of the Highlands
campus and that you know, they manage the chapel that's

(03:02):
within our neighborhood as well, which is very cool, okay.
And I think that there's so many houses being built
out in this area, it's a perfect place for the church.
So you know, they've been using the sports box for
the last ten years.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
Good deal.

Speaker 1 (03:15):

Speaker 3 (04:06):
What we got Well, we've.

Speaker 5 (04:08):
Got a ribbon cutting on Tuesday with Lee Max and
they're ribbon cutting. They're located at one O four South
Sixth Street, and so it's really interesting. I actually drove
by yesterday. They're right next to the Opla the chamber
building that they're going down the ramp that's heading down

(04:30):
to Railroad Avenue. Okay, And so it's an interesting, interesting
little spot there, but it's it's very close and we're
very excited to celebrate with them at four pm on Tuesday,
and and I can't wait to go and learn more
all about their business. You know now that we have
an amazing team that are helping get our members onboarded

(04:52):
and things like that. I don't always get the inside
scoop about those members until I have an opportunity to
meet with them, and so I'm excited to learn more
about Lemax. On Thursday, we have a ribbon cutting and
a business after Hours back to back, and that is
a joint one with the Auburn Chamber because it is
the Hilton Garden Inn ribbon cutting and they're located at

(05:15):
twenty five to fifty five Hilton Garden Drive, and so
that's looks like it's right near it's the Hilton Garden
Inn by like Stam's Club and.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Exactly right and everything yep, cross street from Models Barbecue,
that area right in there, yep.

Speaker 5 (05:31):
So they're doing a they're doing a ribbon cutting followed
but at three point thirty and then immediately following at
four pm is the Business after Hours, all right.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
That'll be at the Hilton Garden in as Well. Right,
that's right there you go, all right, Ali rats is
with us. We're going over Chamber Chat looking over all
the Chamber of Commerce events. This week you got two
big ones. I'm looking down. You got connect over coffee
next week and some other things. But this week you
got the Lee Max ribbon cut on the fifteenth, and
that's down there by. It used to be Jerry Ray's office.

(06:03):
The vision used to be I think Watle Vision right there,
and you go down that slope right, I think.

Speaker 5 (06:08):
Yes, yep, it's behind Wally Vision.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Yet there you go.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
That's what I was trying to get out. And then
of course the Hilton guard in over there and as
you mentioned, close to Sam's Club in Auburn. So there
you go, all right.

Speaker 5 (06:20):
Right, and if anybody wants to look ahead, of course,
next Friday we've got Kennet Server coffee at eight am,
followed by a new member orientation and then we're really excited.
Bubble's Party too is doing the ribbon cutting ceremony and
celebration and they are on They're at one thousand Main
Street in Auburn, but it looks like they're going to
have a very very cool ribbon cutting ceremony at four

(06:42):
pm on Friday afternoon, So lots of good options. And
then the only thing I also want to mention, of course,
is you know, one of the fun things that we
do at at the Chamber is planned international travel, and
so we have a group heading to Ireland's the Heart
of Ireland in October of twenty twenty five, which is

(07:04):
later this year, for seven days, and we're currently booking
trips are kind of in the last thirty days or
so of being able to book, but it is Gyms
with the Emerald Isle from October fifteenth to October twenty second,
and you'll arrive in Ireland and stay in Limerick and
then you're going to get to see the Cliffs of More,

(07:26):
You'll get to see Galway, a lot of kind of
cool pubs, lots of cool touristy activities and things that
you'll see. When you're doing that. Then you've got a
free day where you get to explore King John's Castle
in Limerick. There's lots of different activities, whether it's Irish
landmarks or theater, sporting events, you name it. And then

(07:49):
on day five you head to the Dingle Peninsula and yeah,
Dingle Peninsula on your way through the Blanket Island Center.
And so this is like some remote offshore islands. It
looks very very cool. It's a very it's a market
town and a fishing port. And then you head back
to Limerick and then on day six you get to
go take another kind of day trip and you are

(08:11):
you get to see the Rock of Cashle and that's
a limestone rock that's kind of crowned with specular and
religious buildings that dominate that entire countryside. And you get
to go to Kilkenny. I hope I say these names right,
you know it. Technically I am Irish. My ancestors came

(08:34):
from Cork, Ireland. I should have a better better pronunciation
of it. Hey, I'm doing my best. But you do
get to see the Blarney Stone while you're there as well,
which is super cool. And then you come back to
the States. So these trips are really cool because it
includes your airfare, it includes your transportation to and from
the airport. A handful of meals are also included, and

(08:58):
then you have joy of experiencing international travel without the
pressure of figuring it out all by yourself. You essentially
kind of get to just hop on for the ride,
if that makes sense.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
Yep.

Speaker 5 (09:15):
And the cool thing with us, true is you have
the opportunity to add on a London pre tour or
a a Dublin post tour, and so those are kind
of cool ways if you wanted to kind of extend
that seven day trip a little bit longer. And the
double price for that starts as low as thirty nine
forty nine. So if you've got two people in your room,

(09:37):
thirty nine to forty nine a person, and that includes
the airfer, which is crazy, that's crazy. Yeah, we we
certainly love people to check it out. They can go
to open like a chamber dot com and right there
on the homepage you'll see the details to travel to Ireland.
We should have like one final kind of interest party
that we're going to do, and then we're also about
to start celebrating and talking about and having some interest

(10:00):
parties for our upcoming Switzerland trip in the spring of
twenty twenty six.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
You're getting it going on planning these trips. A good
deal anything else, Miss.

Speaker 5 (10:10):
