Come to Maasdam Barns for Business After Hours on Thursday, October 18th from 4:00pm to 7:00pm. Enjoy hot and cold apple cider, apple slices and cheese and crackers! Maasdam Barns is located on the south side of Fairfield on south Highway 1.

The Maasdam Barns are three historic barns located on Evergreen Ridge Stock Farm on south Highway 1. In 2008, a section of the farmstead was entered into the National Register of Historic Places for being a prominent location of importing and breeding award-winning draft horses. From 1910 to 1938, owner J. G. Maasdam bred Belgian, Percheron and other draft horses. At the time, draft horses were extremely important for powering farm equipment. Come to Business After Hours and see a hay demonstration and tour the buildings!

The Chamber Business After Hours is a free, monthly networking event open to Chamber Members, their guests and the general public. If you are interested in hosting a Business After Hours, please contact the Chamber at 641-472-2111 or by email at Info@FairfieldIowa.com.

Leadership Fairfield - Second Session

10/3/2018

0 Comments

 
Leadership Fairfield participants just gathered for the second session in the 2018-2019 Leadership Fairfield Program on Tuesday, October 2nd. Leadership Fairfield is Fairfield's premier networking and professional development program. The program has eight monthly sessions, each centered around a unique theme. The theme for the second session was "Tell Us Your Story". Participants had the opportunity to share their personal life story with the group. Part of being a great leader involves the ability to work outside of your comfort zone and to be vulnerable at times; by sharing their personal story, participants strengthened their connection with the group. During this session participants also took the MBTI (Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator) Personality Test and toured the local water treatment facility. 

The 2018-2019 Leadership Fairfield Program participants will meet again on Tuesday, November 6th.
