WOODSTOCK: March 27, 2025 - The Township of Norwich Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors and staff actively participated as enthusiastic volunteers in the Oxford County Career Expo, which was organized by the Community Employment Services. This vibrant event took place at the Woodstock Agricultural Society & Fairgrounds, allowing for a large gathering of job seekers and employers alike.


The morning session of the expo was particularly bustling, filled with hundreds of eager students from various educational institutions. These young individuals were on the lookout for job opportunities that aligned with their professional objectives and career aspirations. They engaged with representatives from multiple industries, seeking guidance on how to navigate the job market effectively. As the clock struck 3 PM, the event opened its doors to the general public, further expanding the pool of attendees and creating an even more dynamic atmosphere.


Throughout the day, job seekers were presented with a diverse array of employment opportunities spanning numerous fields. Industries represented included construction, where skilled trades and labor roles were in high demand; sports and leisure, which offered positions in coaching, management, and event planning; health and wellness, featuring roles in healthcare, fitness, and nutrition; and transportation, which highlighted various logistics and driving positions. This variety ensured that there was something for everyone, catering to different interests and skill sets.

Mayor Palmer was also present to lend his support to the event.
