working for the Narooma district
The Chamber has gone from strength to strength in recent years achieving some great results in line with its strategic business plan. Recent successes have been the Narooma Oyster Festival, the town’s new ‘how life should be’ branding, the Monties Business Awards, Christmas lights and decorations, the banner program and the bigger and better Christmas Carols.
We also have implemented the stunning www.narooma.org.au website which is averaging over 7 million hits every year!
