The Mountain Brook Chamber of Commerce is gearing up to host a local shopping day and quarterly luncheon this month.
The Chamber will kick off a new series of Live Local Saturdays on April 5 in Crestline Village from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Held in conjunction with the Mountain Brook Art Association Spring Art Festival, the Chamber is encouraging residents to come into the village to shop and dine. Merchants will hold special demonstrations or feature special guests. Live Local Saturdays will be held in Crestline and other villages in future months.
For the Chamber’s April 24 luncheon, Richard E. Simmons III will discuss his most recent book, A Life of Excellence. A Mountain Brook native and frequent public speaker, Simmons works with businessmen in the development of their faith through formal Bible studies, teaching and counseling through the Center for Executive Leadership. The luncheon will be held at Park Lane in English Village. Doors will open at 11 a.m. for networking, and the luncheon will begin at 11:30.
