Valentine's Day originally started out as a feast. We have been trying to do our fair share of feasting here in Evergreen by supporting our local restaurants. Ordering in and buying gift cards has become part of our day to day life recently. And I know our restaurants are grateful.
Let's also make sure that we are spreading the love as far and wide as we can with ALL of our needs.
The Evergreen Area has such a wide array of valuable businesses waiting to serve our community. Now is a great time to see which services you can bring closer to home.
Perhaps you are still going down the hill to get your hair done, or your taxes done, or to shop for that new outfit. All of those things can be taken care of here in our small town.
Finally able to plan a trip? Maybe it's worth it to have a local travel agent help you book it as we know the travel industry took one of the hardest hits in the last year.
Decided it's finally time to get your finances organized or a will drawn up? There are so many professionals here in town that are eager to help you with that!
The Evergreen Chamber of Commerce website is the first place you should check when it's time to find a new professional. Our business directory has every Chamber member listed and is easy to navigate and search.
Let's continue to spread the love to eachother.

New Social Media Benefit Guidelines |
|

The Pandemic has brought along some changes that we are fairly certain won't be going anywhere anytime soon. One of those things is Marketing and Communicating in the digital age. Here at the Chamber we want to make sure that we are serving you and your business in all avenues. We have outlined below what Social Media Benefits you can expect based on your membership level.
When you provide your content to be posted on the Evergreen Area Chamber of Commerce Facebook, Instagram and Twitter pages, please include a graphic and copy. Email this information to marketing@evergreenchamber.org along with when you would prefer it to be posted. We will try our very best to accommodate the desired date of posting based on the rest of the Chamber posting calendar.

Women 2 Women Leads Group has available spots!
They meet monthly on the 2nd Wednesday. Right now they are virtual but hope to go back to in-person this fall. When in person, they meet at the Evergreen fire station. Dues at $48 per year.
"We are a group of ladies who work to support one another in our business (and sometimes personal) life by getting to know one another and understanding what others offer. By doing so, we can do business directly but we also frequently share one another's information with people not in the group!"
If anyone has questions or would like to join us as a guest to see what our meetings are like, they can reach out to Mindy. Mindy@AlphaPixelReach.com or 720-526-3636.
