Our community has a proud tradition of being there for one another and 2020 has been no exception. In that spirit, the Siouxland Chamber of Commerce has elected to forego our Annual Dinner Meeting and instead host an online auction culminating with another edition of our much anticipated "Year in Review" mock newscast. Focusing on our nearly 1,400 members, this event is titled "Celebrate Me Home," and created to encourage everyone to STAY...SHOP...and SUPPORT Siouxland.
