The Chamber Office is Moving!!!

The Chamber is temporarily relocating our offices to the 4th floor of the First National Bank Building with the MAEDS' offices.  This move is part of the joining of the Chamber and MAEDS, and to allow the Convention and Visitors Bureau to have additional space as they continue to expand the scope of their responsibilities.

Our phones will stay the same, but our new mailing address is:
2 N. Main Street, Suite 407
Miami, OK 74354

Please be patient as we transfer phones, internet, email and such on Tuesday as technology can be tricky.  If you can't reach us and need immediate assistance, please call the MAEDS office at 918-542-8405.
