A Royal Night

The Pawtuxet Valley Chamber of Commerce held the 3rd annual Royal Night Stroll at the Royal Mills apartments. It was a fantastic event - completely sold out - with numerous vendors, and countless individuals donating time and resources to help add to the strength and health of our local economy.

The Town is grateful to those who donated and to those who attended. A special thanks to Diane Wilson, Executive Director of the Chamber for all the work she put in on behalf of her 31 bosses!

We hope to see you there next year, and welcome any ideas you may have on how to make West Warwick a better place to work and do business.
