In 2017 it’s essential you, as the owner of a dynamic business, make smart growth your priority.
The Twentynine Palms Chamber of Commerce is seeking vendors for the City of Twentynine Palms 4th of July Celebration at Luckie Park. Live music, games for the kids, the pool will have extended hours, and of course, a fabulous fireworks display will make for a great evening!
