A wide spread of appetizers were on display for Paulding Chamber members to graze over at the Paulding Chamber of Commerce Annual Banquet on Thursday, March 10. After introductions of awards (listed below), attendees enjoyed an evening of guilt-free and risk-free gambling fun! All game chips won were turned in for tickets to put in for the prize drawings at the end of the evening. Casino Night was a great change of pace for the drab late winter evening.
