Picnics & Patios Contest
Keep an eye out for Picnics & Patios social media posts to enter to win great prizes! Tag your favorite restaurant and two friends for a chance to win a catered picnic lunch for two at Government House, along with other weekly prizes. #ChamberLocalVicBC
This campaign is meant to start a dialogue about defining local. We want to know how we can embrace this idea, to better understand what it means to be local and what we can do to help the people who own and operate businesses in our region. Read the stories from Chamber Members here. Takeout Challenge
In response to the March 2021 Provincial Health Order limiting indoor dining across BC, The Chamber created the Takeout Challenge to support local restaurants. The Chamber’s Takeout Challenge is now closed. Read about the campaign below. Bingo for Local Business

Picnics & Patios Contest
Many of our member restaurants have been hard hit by COVID restrictions, and working with our partners — BC Restaurant and Food Services Association, City of Victoria, Destination Greater Victoria, Downtown Victoria Business Association and the Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce — we have a tasty plan to remind everyone to safely support our local businesses.

#ChamberLocalVicBC
Our #ChamberLocalVicBC campaign aims to help individuals understand what local means on a social, economic, and community level.
We're asking our members to answer this question with a quote about what makes their business or organization local. We hope you will help us amplify these stories as we work with resilience to bounce forward out of this pandemic. |
