Celebrate New Riverview Welcome Center
On Monday September 25, Greater Riverview Chamber of Commerce (GRCC) had the pleasure of celebrating a valued member and a brand new footprint in Riverview. Susan Cioffi has been a part of the GRCC family for over five years and has been instrumental in the annual Trick or Treat Street event, but had never hosted a Ribbon Cutting ceremony. With the brand new Riverview Welcome Center in her home office of RE/MAX South Shore Realty, it made for the perfect celebratory match. Doug and Janelle Duncan, owners of RE/MAX South Shore Realty, were very happy to welcome everyone into the office to show off the Welcome Center.
The highlight of the Center is a mural that was created by Liz Brewer, Doug & Janelle Duncan and developed by Signarama of Brandon. It is wonderful depiction of the East Hillsborough County area and gives folks a sense of where the major communities are located. The Center offers information regarding history, entertainment, and fun facts about Riverview as well as tourist information on other nearby areas/attractions.
The office is located at 10445 Gibsonton Dr. Call 672-9000 or Susan directly at 956-8513.

Beanie, Debbie and the rest of the Tichy family were thrilled with the visitors and put out a very nice array of appetizers for everyone, including a complimentary drink.
