I have no words! 🥹 Thank you so much Kittitas County Chamber of Commerce for this amazing opportunity! Earlier this year, I registered for the Enterprise Challenge hosted by the KCCC. This program is a Kittitas County business plan competition that included ten weeks of instruction on various segments of business. There were three rounds of competition, where businesses competed based on their business pitch, a tradeshow, and a Shark Tank-style presentation. I’m beyond thankful to share that I placed 1st in this competition, receiving a grand prize of $10,000, a one-year membership to the Chamber of Commerce, and a one-year subscription to LivePlan. 🏆 For those who don’t know, I founded a boutique digital marketing agency and creative studio called Simply Social in 2023. So far I’ve worked with over one dozen local businesses, and I can’t wait to continue to grow after the Enterprise Challenge ☺️ I’d like to give special thanks to Dr. Sayantani Mukherjee and all of the other professors and coworkers I had at CWU. I couldn’t be where I am today without Central! 🐾

Congratulations on The Wooden Horse on their grand opening over this past weekend! We loved seeing the community support and having Quiet Cadence there to celebrate. The Wooden Horse is located at 331 Elk Heights Ranch Road, Cle Elum. "Through a holistic, horse centered approach to horsemanship, we help people become better partners to their horses. Located in beautiful Cle Elum, just over the Cascade mountains, we are close to the Washington State Horse Park. This gives us access to hours of trail riding, several large arenas and many horse events. Visit us on Elk Heights Ranch (I-90 exit 93 where the big metal elk stand in the pasture, follow the signs for the ranch up the hill)."
