The Antigonish Chamber of Commerce is gearing up for spring.
Lauren Kaiser, executive director for the Antigonish Chamber of Commerce, said they are hosting a headshot session for local businesses on February 12, featuring local photographer Brian Kennedy, with a Linked-In workshop later in the month.

The chamber is hosting its annual President`s Dinner on May 13, with guest speaker Barb Stegemann, an Antigonish native, author, and founder and CEO of The 7 Virtues perfume. The chamber will also announce its new board at that time.
Kaiser said they are hoping to do a smaller dinner over the summer, noting they are also co-hosting a tourism package development workshop, alongside Coastal Nova Scotia and Tourism Nova Scotia, this Friday at the Microtel Inn and Suites.
Work will soon begin on the chamber`s annual visitor map, with Kaiser stating if people want a community event or business included, they can contact the chamber.
