After three weeks of complete tear down and renovation, the Richmond Chamber’s new office is now open. Look out for an open house party coming soon!
JOSHUA TREE CHIROPRACTIC
My name is Joshua Pollack, and I’m the new chiropractic doctor in town. I set my new office in the El Cerrito Plaza because I know you shop there. I know this because there is not another See’s Candy store for twenty miles. (Just kidding. But if you don’t know See’s Candy maybe you need to look into it.)
On Saturday, June 4th from 12-3 p.m., we will be holding our grand opening party with the who’s who of the East Bay in attendance. I hope to see you there as well!
Legal Plans Are the Affordable Way to Create a Will
by David Schoenthal
Seven out of ten people do not have a will, and nine out of ten minorities do not have a will. We recently learned that the iconic singer Prince did not have a will, and now his estate may be subject to state probate.
Most people do not get their will done because of the cost and the lack of time available to complete it.
We had over 70 people attended our last business mixer on April 14 at Assemble Restaurant.
Everyone enjoyed an endless supply of delicious beef and portobello mushroom burgers. The beautiful space with spectacular views created a great atmosphere for networking, which a free drink and a live DJ made even better.
Thank you to Assemble for being such a great host!
