Chamber Bucks
Are you looking for a last-minute gift for a friend, family member, or coworker? Chamber Bucks are a great gift to give while also supporting our local merchants by shopping local! They work just like a gift certificate, but lets the receiver decide where to spend the money. Chamber Bucks can be used at any local business that is a member of the Wabasha-Kellogg Chamber of Commerce or taken to First State Bank to be cashed. Stop by the Chamber Office for more information or to purchase Chamber Bucks.
