Check out our 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!
