Darien Chamber of Commerce announcement

Chip credit cards are common in Europe but relatively new to the United States. They’re designed to be more difficult for thieves to use.

Rosenbloom, an assistant vice president and cash management services manager at First County Bank, is also a board member at the Darien Chamber of Commerce.

 

According to an announcement on the chamber website: “Jimmy Love [owner of Jimmy’s Southside Tavern] is hosting chamber members and treating us to wonderful appetizers. Happy hour cash bar prizes.”

The event costs $15 for members and $20 for non-members. It takes place from 5:15 to 7 p.m. Thursday in the restaurant, located at 340 Heights Road.
