The sixteenth annual Fayette County Chamber of Commerce Business Expo is quickly approaching and is a great opportunity for the public to experience a wide range of products, services, and some great food provided by local businesses. Exhibits will include local restaurants and caterers, health and wellness experts, a furniture and home decorating supplier, apparel and jewelry retailers, banking services, computer services, an automotive dealership, insurance and financial planning experts and much more. Over 125 local businesses will participate this year, and the event is free to the public.

The Business Expo exhibits will be open on September 12 from 4 to 8 p.m. at New Hope Baptist Church, located at 551 New Hope Road in Fayetteville.

Prize drawings will be held during the event, and attendees can enter for a chance to win some great giveaways such as an iPod Nano and a Bluetooth wireless communications headset.

Visitors are invited to come at 1 p.m., before the exhibits open at 4 p.m., and hear author and nationally known expert Mike Meutzel talk about the keys to successfully working with Generation X workers. There is no charge to hear Meutzel or to visit the exhibits afterward.
