COVID-19 is not just a local or business problem. This is a national problem, a world problem. Follow the guidelines and policies. They have been enacted to SAVE LIVES.
The best way you can help our community and our businesses is to stay healthy, watch out for your neighbor, and follow social distance recommendations. Let's DO this. Be the model.
We have cancelled or postponed all in-person events through the first week of April. See below for virtual events starting this Wednesday!
The Chamber will be posting applicable updates to
our news page and posting on social media. Some of our businesses have become quite creative in their marketing efforts. Check out our shares on
Facebook and reposts on
