The 27th Annual Fort Frances Chamber of Commerce Business Awards took place on Wednesday, October 16th at La Place Rendez Vous.
The Chamber put on a first class event! Cathy Tysz from NCDS played many different roles during the course of the evening, including giving the opening remarks and creating a wonderful slide show!
Shane Beckett did a stellar job as the event’s emcee!
La Place Rendez Vous served up another amazing meal!
