If requested, a proof of the ad can be sent prior to going live. Once live, any changes requested will be made as quickly as possible; depending on the nature of the change, an additional fee of $15 may apply.

All ads will be subject to Chamber approval for clarity, readability and colour combination. And no ad will be displayed if deemed inappropriate or offensive upon review by the Chamber.

The Chamber reserves the right to interrupt the live ads at any time to broadcast  information for emergencies,  public safety and public awareness.
