December Happenings
Happy December!
We, the chamber board, have been working hard to find ways to do more for you and our community during this pandemic. It is deeply rewarding work and exciting to see what we can help create when we work together.
We have already begun planning events, old and new, for next year!
While we haven't been able to meet with our members in person the past two years, we do want and need your input!
Please join us for
The Candor Chamber Member Annual Meeting
Monday, December 13th on Zoom
7:00pm - 8:00pm
We will announce a new director and VP, what we have been working on, what we have planned, introductions and what you need and would like to see from us.

emailed directly to you that day)
