EVENTS

Sharing your event helps more people see it and builds trust in your business. When you post an event, it shows you're part of a strong local network. Your event can reach other businesses, community members, and even visitors who check our website and calendar.

It’s also a great opportunity to connect with local business owners, increase visibility, and attract new customers or supporters. Only Chamber members in good standing are eligible to host or speak at events.
