Randy North
Solid Rock Realty
President
As well as working as President of the South Dundas Chamber of Commerce, I work as a realtor with Solid Rock Realty. A lot of my work is in Iroquois, Brinston, Williamsburg, Morrisburg and other parts of eastern Ontario. Our real estate company’s head office is in Ottawa, with branch offices in Brockville, Kingston and Toronto. I originally started my real estate career in Morrisburg in 2003 and then worked with the remarkable Jacques Asselin in Iroquois until he retired. I miss working with Jacques, he is an amazing person.
The Chamber is important for helping support, connect and promote the community as a whole as well as the businesses in our area, including our neighbors along the river. As the Chamber of Commerce, we also foster connections and representation with municipal and provincial levels of government to support a strong and healthy local economy. The current board of directors and committee members are very dedicated and pro-active, a fantastic bunch to work with.
One of our famous events is the annual spring Home, Trade and Craft show at the Morrisburg Arena as well as other networking opportunities. I'm really looking forward to our second annual boat cruise along the majestic river this September 4th.
Beth Carhart
Nunniyer Business
Vice President
Beth Carhart traded the East Coast for Ontario years ago, eventually
finding her heart and home in Williamsburg in 2012. She and her partner Tom co-founded Nunniyer Business in 2007, and Beth also started & leads Help Our Homeless, a charity she started to
support vulnerable people within her community.
A proud and active member of the community, Beth serves on two Chamber of Commerce boards, the J.W. Macintosh & the Oddfellows Lodge. She is always
eager to give back and help others thrive.
Outside of work, you’ll find her cheering on her favorite hockey team, doting on her dog and three cats, or enjoying a quiet
moment with Tom.

I have been a member of South Dundas Chamber of Commerce since 2018. I have always believed the Chamber is an important part of the community. Its support for local businesses is our main focus.
Real Estate has always been my dream job. I love meeting new people, exploring different properties and being able to help my new friends move into their Dream Home.

Brad Parks
Giant Tiger Morrisburg
Board Member
I've lived in South Dundas for 6 years, owned the Giant Tiger store here in Morrisburg for 8 years and had worked at it previously for 6 years before that. I have worked for Giant Tiger for thirty years and am proud to work for a Canadian retailer that started in Ottawa Ontario.
The chamber is even more important as we head into economic uncertainty in the coming years. We will need to come together to survive and flourish, stand together and find new opportunities for all in South Dundas to grow and succeed.
Jim Cooper
Silicon Valley Services
Board Member
I am the owner of Silicon Valley Services, a managed service provider in Embrun supporting businesses all over Eastern Ontario.
South Dundas is a unique area compromising the former Matilda Township, Williamsburg Township, along with Iroquois and Morrisburg. The area is beautiful and has so much to offer - young, older, residents and tourists. The people are friendly, and the small-town spirit still reigns freely. I am proud to be from South Dundas with so many friends and relatives still living in the area. The job of the South Dundas Chamber is to promote its members, the residents, to bring in new business, and promote the area as a whole. We will always do our best.
