Member of the Week.
Each week the chamber makes a visit to award one of its members this distinct recognition. Recipients of this award receive the Chamber Member of the Week sign to display in their business that week, balloons, and a box of donuts. The Chamber Member of the Week has their picture taken, and fills out a business profile which the Chamber sends to the local newspapers for publication. It is also displayed on the Chamber website. This is a media benefit for your business. Listen for your phone to ring, as you may be our next Chamber Member of the Week!
Business After Hours
is a key networking opportunity that allows business owners and professionals to meet fellow Chamber members. Within your Chamber network you can create a pool of resources as you exchange ideas, business cards and share common problems/successes in the business community.
