The Small Business Chamber of Commerce of Manasota is ready to move forward. 

Members discussed getting a website during their monthly meeting, Tuesday, April 20, at Cheers to Wine in San Marco Plaza. Small local business owners networked while sipping wine from Robin Spagnola's taps. She co-owns the wine shop with her husband Carmen, and both are members of the Chamber.
