The Clinton Chamber of Commerce will host it’s 24th Annual Business and Community Expo at Andrews Memorial Town Hall, Route One in Clinton on Saturday April 4th from 9:30 am to 3:00pm. More than 45 local businesses, restaurants, and civic groups will be present. Exhibitors will display, advertise, and promote their businesses, while those attending can discover resources available to local residents.

The event includes activities for the kids including a visit from Elsa and Anna from Frozen, sponsored by Kidz Konnection; an exhibit from Meigs Point, sponsored by Shoreline Animal Hospital;  and the Easter Bunny. A food court offering modestly priced tastes from Clinton eateries will also be available. The event is family oriented and open to the public.
