The Chamber appreciates the opportunity to serve the community and hopes that you are able to see the positive changes in our community.

They have a couple of phrases that we have used over the years, “Bringing the community together like family” and “Love where you Live.” They truly do believe they are making a difference.

The Chamber’s main focus is business promotion as we are here to help your business grow and prosper. Community Development and Business Growth go hand and hand.

They will continue on their mission to make a difference in those two areas and be the best they can be.
