The Contributions Small Business Make to Peace River

Layne Gardner, President of the Peace River & District Chamber of Commerce and member of the Economic Development Committee, speaks from the Sagitawa Lookout about the value of small businesses in Peace River.
 
Layne reflects on his own family’s history of moving to Peace River to start a small business, and on the impact that entrepreneurs continue to have here.
 
Small businesses are more than storefronts. They sponsorg kids’ sports, donate to community causes, hire local people, create opportunity, and shape the character of the town.
 
So, support them! Shop local. Before ordering online, check what is available here first. Small business owners are the dreamers, builders, and risk-takers who make Peace River work.
 
With views as spectacular as this and a community of people willing to invest and build here, Peace River truly is a base camp for opportunity.
 
To every small business owner, thank you!
