Connect
Joining the Chamber means instantly becoming part of our 680+ business members and opportunities to meet the thousands of business representatives thereof! Connections made at the Chamber go deeper than just networking; our team strives to build relationships between members and with resources in our community so that initial meetings turn into long-lasting partnerships. The fastest way to connect as a new or prospective member of the Chamber is to attend one of our upcoming networking events!
Coffee & Connections has quickly become a member favorite! Each third Wednesday morning from 8:00-9:00am, Chamber members and guests meet at a fellow member business for coffee and casual networking! Bring plenty of business cards and be sure to drop one in the bowl when you attend! We scan and email all business cards received to participants afterwards so that you can follow up with people that you met or reach out to people you didn’t have a chance to talk to! This event is free for members and first-time guests, just register on our events calendar!
If you prefer an evening event, join us for Networking at Night! These events are held in the Fall and Spring and feature 100-150 guests for an evening of networking over food and drink. These events often include additional marketing opportunities for members including sponsorships and marketing tables! Register on our events calendar and bring a friend!
