3rd Annual Roanoke Holiday Career and Lifestyle Fair
December 30, 2007
Time: 9 a.m. – 12 noon
Roanoke Civic Center Exhibit Hall
The 3rd Annual Roanoke Holiday Career and Lifestyle Fair, sponsored by The Renick Group, Express Employment Professionals, and WDBJ 7, will be held at
the Roanoke Civic Center's Exhibit Hall on Tuesday, December 30, 2008, from 9 a.m. until 12 noon.
The event is designed to connect native Roanokers, who are home for the holidays, to the many employment, business and lifestyle opportunities in
the region. However, all are welcome to attend and participate. In the past two years, over 100 exhibitors and 1000 people have attended.
"A lot of native Roanokers return for the holidays each year to visit their families. Since they are here, we feel it is an opportune time to communicate and reach out to our native sons and daughters," says fair coordinator, Stuart Mease.
Exhibitors will include companies offering jobs, entrepreneurial organizations showcasing resources to assist with business startups, and
lifestyle organizations offering a diverse mix of social and cultural amenities.
"Despite the economic recession, Roanoke still provides a unique blend of employment and lifestyle options. We feel now more than ever we must showcase these advantages."
Admission to the fair for attendees and exhibitors is FREE. For more information on being an exhibitor, contact Stuart Mease at 540-853-2384, stuart.mease@roanokeva.gov or visit www.roanokeva.gov/fairs.
