The Chamber has several committees that members can join! Our committees work hard addressing issues that affect the most current needs of the community while our event committees are instrumental in the planning and implementation of our annual programs. No matter what your interests are, there is a committee for you! Participation on these committees allows members to better get to know one another while increasing their network of contacts. Plus- committee members are often recognized in event programs as well as media releases and newsletters.

To join one of these committees, fill our our committee preference form and return it to the Chamber.
