West of the River Chamber Slates Lunch and Learn Event for Oct. 18

WEST SPRINGFIELD — The West of the River Chamber of Commerce announced its third Lunch and Learn event, a legislative update from John Regan, AIM’s executive vice president for government affairs.

The event will take place Tuesday, Oct. 18 from noon to 2 p.m. at Storrowton Tavern’s Carriage House in West Springfield. Attendees will learn about the frenzied conclusion to the 2015-16 state legislative session that produced far-reaching measures on pay equity, energy, and economic development, but no agreement on restricting the use of non-compete agreements. Regan will discuss the matters that passed, those that didn’t, and what may be in store for the next legislative session that begins in January, and how developments on Beacon Hill may impact area businesses.

The event costs $35 for all attendees, and is open to the public. For more information or to register, call the West of the River Chamber of Commerce office at (413) 426-3880 or visit www.westoftheriverchamber.com.
