Catoosa Colonnade Civic Center hosted the Business Expo in Georgia

RINGGOLD, Georgia. (WDEF)– Today, the Catoosa Colonnade Civic Center hosted the yearly Business Expo in Ringgold Georgia.

The holiday season is quickly approaching, and the Catoosa Colonnade wanted to ensure the community had a fun and easy way to access various businesses in the area that could make someone’s holiday event spectacular.

This event was made for businesses to make networking and showcasing certain products easier, and to give the public a firsthand experience with a desired company.

They had over 100 booths that showcased home services, food products, specialty items, and even non-profit organizations.

Amy Jackson, President and CEO at Catoosa County Chamber of Commerce says, “Watching the relationships just build. Neighbors who haven’t seen each other in a long time, and new relationships building. It’s overwhelming to watch it. It really does put you in the Christmas spirit.”

There were even fun activities for children, as many could meet Santa Claus and have a dance-off with their favorite characters.

Jack Cooper, one of the community’s favorite Santa Claus says, “Well I’d just like to wish everybody a merry Christmas. I know we’re early, don’t get me wrong, but it’s a good time to celebrate Christmas, anytime. Ho-ho-ho.”

The Expo is always free to the public, however, if you have a service, business, or special item that you want to present, next year you can buy and decorate your booth.
