Ambassadors do Business After Hours at ArrowQuick

ArrowQuick Solutions, the new design and printing store, held a tropical-themed open house Tuesday from 5 to 7 p.m.

The open house was part of the Business After Hours program, sponsored by the Centerville Chamber Ambassadors.

“It’s about getting people to go into other businesses, see what’s new and have fun,” Joyce Bieber, of the Centerville Chamber of Commerce, explained.

Now four years in existence, the Business After Hours Program is held each month at a different business location.

Attendees were greeted at the door with gifts of leis to wear around their necks and tropical-themed refreshments, such as “unleaded” margaritas and daiquiris, candy, tropical fruit and finger food.

In addition to food, prizes were given out at the end of the open house to those who entered the drawing. Prizes included an iPod Nano, a USB drive, digital picture frame, gift certificates and other prizes.

ArrowQuick, who also has offices in Oskaloosa, and Tipton, had staff on hand from all three locations to welcome guests.

The goal of the open house was to, “introduce the community and chamber of commerce to ArrowQuick Solutions,” Michelle Allen, store manager said.

Located in the office formerly known as The Document Source, ArrowQuick Solutions specializes in web design, IT services, VHS and DVD authoring and graphic design. It’s located on the east side of the Centerville Square.

Dannco will be hosting next month’s Business After Hours.

Whitaker, state executive director Iowa FSA. Many questioned if the meeting Tuesday was necessary because the decision had already been made.
