On behalf of the Chamber team, including the Board, Staff and Volunteers, I would like to wish each of you a wonderful New Year!

These have all been part of the work our Chamber has
accomplished in this year of celebration.
But wait, there is more… Be sure to check out the calendar for January and February events and come out and join us! Great things are happening and we want ALL of our members to be a part of the progress.
