2014 Tri-Chamber Foothills Business Expo and Document Shredding

The annual Foothills Community Business Expo is a tri-chamber event sponsored by the Crescenta Valley, La Cañada Flintridge, and Montrose-Verdugo City chambers of commerce and is co-sponsored by USC Verdugo Hills Hospital. The Expo provides Chamber business members and community organizations an opportunity to display and highlight products and services to businesses and residents of the foothills community. For the community, this event provides a way for community members to learn about many of the different businesses in the foothills area and speak to the owners one-on-one all in one place. The event is free and runs from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in the fourth floor community rooms at the main entrance to the hospital. You can come right from work and not have to worry about getting dinner beforehand because there are several local restaurants that will be providing samples of their great food for you to enjoy. Our restaurant sponsors are Angeles National Golf Club, Dream Dinners, Frank’s Famous Kitchen and Catering, Gio’s Baguettes and More, Montrose Bakery and Café, Pepe’s Mexican Restaurant, Straw Hat Pizza and Thee Elbow Room.

The Montrose Chamber would also like to thank the following participating businesses for sponsoring this event: Gold sponsors are Crescenta-Cañada Pet Hospital, Crescenta Valley Insurance, J’s Maintenance, NASA Services and Stephen J.

Local residents and businesses may bring up to 10 boxes of old documents to be shredded. An express line will be available for customers with three units (boxes or bags) or less to be shredded.
