Weekly Newsletter
The chamber office had developed a weekly newsletter that is distributed each Friday, and will tell about upcoming events and items of business. We want to include news about your events and cut down on the number of emails our members receive to one per week. Please continue to send your business-related information, but please send the information in plenty of time to be added to Friday's newsletter.
