Business leaders gathered on May 28 for the 2025 Mayor’s Breakfast, hosted by the Township of South Stormont and the South Stormont Chamber of Commerce. The annual event provided networking opportunities and updates on local economic initiatives.
Mayor Bryan McGillis highlighted key projects including the Ingleside Wastewater Treatment Plant expansion, Plan 279’s Area Development Strategy, and the upcoming Economic Development Strategy and Community Improvement Plan.
“Events like this are more than just a breakfast-they’re about coming together as a community,” said McGillis. “When you get business owners, Township officials, and regional partners in the same room, great conversations happen.”
Attendees also previewed the Chamber’s new website, offering business resources, a member directory, and event listings.
“The Chamber is a vital partner,” said Chris Hemond, the Township’s Economic Development and Communications Coordinator. “We encourage all business owners to get involved.”
