The Chamber Offices will be closed on Friday, March 29, 2024.

As always, if you have any questions, please reach out to us.

Elevate, a program from Hastings Economic Development Corporation & Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce, connects interns from a variety of career paths, backgrounds, and lifestyles with a network of young professionals their age while they experience purposeful engaging community opportunities together. The program features several meaningfully designed events to immerse interns in all things Hastings outside of their workday!

Businesses with interns can sign up for ELEVATE 2024 now! Last year we had 19 interns participating in the ELEVATE program from 4 Hastings area businesses.

The deadline to register is April 19th - Businesses can still register, even if you haven't selected your interns yet.
