“War Cannon Spirits is delighted to host our second Ticonderoga Area Chamber of Commerce Networking Event and After Business Mixer on March 20th. Complimentary cava and hors d’oeuvres will be served along with samples of our new ‘St. Patrick’s Evacuation’ bourbon. St Patrick’s Evacuation is a celebration of the historical ties shared between Crown Point and Ticonderoga, NY as well as the city of Boston on March 17 – which has been known as Evacuation Day since March 17, 1776 when the cannons delivered by Henry Knox from Fort Crown Point and Ticonderoga played an instrumental role in ending the Siege of Boston. We encourage you to join us and TACC, experience specialty cocktails at War Cannon, and enjoy samplings from our menu. I want to thank the TACC for their continued support and coordination. They are truly a community and business partner,” shared Paul Besignano, Owner of War Cannon Spirits.
As part of the event, the Regional Office of Sustainable Tourism (ROOST) will be in attendance to provide a brief presentation on regional efforts and business opportunities in regards to the 250th Commemoration of the American Revolution. This will be very informative for area businesses and organizations, and should serve as an additional reason to attend March’s Networking Event.

3 Myths about After Business Mixers & Networking Events BUSTED!
Myth: I don’t have time to go to After Business Mixers.
Busted: You don’t have to be there from 5:30 – 7:00. Stop by for 15 or 20 minutes and make some great new contacts.
Myth: It’s awkward…I won’t know anybody there.
Busted: Ask for a Chamber Ambassador or Board Member when you arrive. These outgoing volunteers will introduce you to the crowd and then you will know lots of people. You can also connect with an Ambassador, Board Member, or TACC Staff Member ahead of time.
Myth: I don’t need to go – I’m on social media.
Busted: There is no substitute for face-to-face networking. People do business with people they know…so come to After Hours and get to know more people.
No excuses – we’ll see you at the next After Business Mixer/Networking Opportunity!
