LAWTON – Hosted by the Apache Casino Hotel, local business and community leaders met Tuesday, Jan. 7, for the Lawton-Fort Sill Chamber of Commerce’s Business Before Breakfast.

Lee Bayless, Event Center Manager for Apache Casino Hotel, gave away two 12-packs of tickets to Saturday night’s comedy show as well as tickets to upcoming concerts by Ronnie Milsap, America, The Guess Who, and Easton Corbin.

Among several newcomers to the chamber’s monthly networking event was Steve Davis, Business Performance Advisor for Insperity HR Services. Davis says he’s looking forward to bringing human resources outsourcing solutions to small businesses in Lawton. With more than 70 offices across the U.S., Insperity offers business consulting options from recruitment to retirement.

“These are really unique opportunities for all of us to network,” said Dennis Wade, executive vice president for the Lawton-Fort Sill Chamber of Commerce. “We’re very fortunate to have this comradery and trust among ourselves. So, take this opportunity to get to know people more, shake a few hands of folks you don’t know.”
