March 21, 2013 - Waterford Business & Home Expo
The 2013 Waterford Business & Home Expo was held on March 21 at Waterford Mott High School, 1151 Scott Lake Road, from 5 to 8 PM. This is the 6th year that the Waterford Area Chamber of Commerce has hosted this fun and informative event that provides locals with the opportunity to see the variety of products and services offered in the Waterford area.
This event isn't just packed with vendors, it is bumper-to-bumper with enthusiastic attendees carrying free tote bags filled with goodies given away by the merchants. These goodies include pens, candy, coupons, cups, model trucks, fliers, brochures, business cards, and many other, usually logo-emblazoned, items. In addition to the giveaways, there were door prizes and raffles from at least 34 vendors. Detroit Metro Mashup was running about 15 minutes late and we barely found a parking spot in Mott's large lot due to the size of the crowd anxious to participate. By the time we left, about 165 photos later, the crowd had thinned somewhat and there was plenty of parking for the new visitors who were still arriving. Can’t comment on the remaining giveaways, however, so we suggest getting there early.
If you want to attend in 2014, either as a vendor or an attendee, we suggest you go to the COC website to get more information, sign up, and/or download their coupon to get into the event for free at http://www.waterfordchamber.org/expo/index.htm. Take a look at our picture gallery for some ideas about what you will find there.
