Real Time Solutions Webinar Series: Laughter is the Best Medicine!
The Apple Valley Chamber of Commerce in partnership with Lakeville, Burnsville, Hastings and River Heights Chambers is excited to continue the 'Real Time Solutions' webinar series! These are complimentary Live 30-minute webinars to help your business navigate the questions, and new normal, related to the COVID-19 epidemic.
ABOUT THE TOPIC
It's been a heck of a year, to say the very least. So we wanted to wrap up this year's series with a good laugh! Spend 30 minutes chuckling away and listening about the importance of laughter in the workplace from these talented local comedians (one of whom is a past Apple Valley Chamber Board Chair! - spoiler, it's Scott Kadrlik).

ABOUT SCOTT KADRLIK
There is nothing funny about being an accountant until you meet Scott Kadrlik, CPA. Scott laughs at himself and his profession the way no accountant has laughed before. We all know an accountant but we rarely meet one who can take the awful experience of tax preparation and make it fun. As an Accountant/Comedian he is an Oxymoron. Scott believes that you need to laugh at yourself because everyone else is already laughing at you. He is the second funniest accountant in America.
ABOUT KAREN PICKERING
Karen Pickering is a lunchlady and retail warrior. Her teenagers begged her to go back to comedy so that they could study at night. So she did. Karen has opened for Joel Hodgson, Shannan Paul, Ray Harrington, Wendy Maybury and many others. She placed 4th in Minnesota's Funniest Person contest. Currently she co-produces the smash hit show, Day Drinking With Mom at the House of Comedy. She's Boston transplant and a nice Karen.
ABOUT PETER BORCHERS
Don’t let his looks fool you; Pete can’t fix your computer or do your taxes. But he can make you laugh at life’s absurdities and his tales of personal ineptitude. In his nearly ten years in comedy, Pete has performed at countless clubs, bars and random people’s basements throughout the Midwest. When he’s not slinging jokes, he’s at home trying to be an adequate husband and keep his two young boys from killing each other. He also has his own marketing business where he writes ads, brochures, websites and anything else his clients are willing to pay him to write.
ABOUT MICHAEL THORNE
Michael Thorne is an amalgam of culture and white trash raised on a greasy silver spoon in a borough of Minneapolis aptly nicknamed “Nordeast”. He has brought his hilarious observational insights on evolution, (or lack thereof), human relations, marriage & parenthood to backwoods barrooms, colleges, casinos and A-list comedy clubs from coast to coast & border to border. Michael grabbed the attention of LA bigwigs at one point who urged him to leave Minnesota to further his career. “You’re the funniest thing out of the Midwest. Now get out of the Midwest.”
