Chamber Notes: Expo Set for Today

Join the Chamber at the Oswego High School Fieldhouse to find out the latest from local businesses.

The eighth annual kicks off at 9 am and runs until 2 pm today at the Field House on Route 71. 

Attendees of previous Expos will notice a slight change in accessibility to the field house due to an addition to the High School which is under construction.  There will be two entrances this year at doors 13 and 31.  Each will be clearly signed and make the field house easily accessible from the parking lots on both sides of the school.

In addition to over 100 exhibits featuring the latest products and services available from area businesses, there will be an art show featuring the works of students from Oswego and Yorkville.

Jarrett Payton, son of football great Walter Payton, will provide an anti-bullying message at 11:15 and Limelight Theater Productions will perform skits starting at 11:50.  World Champion Taekwondo will do demonstrations at 12:30 and dance routines by Dance With Flair begin at 1:15.
