BLUE SPRINGS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

The Blue Springs Chamber of Commerce celebrated it’s 60th anniversary in October 2022. We have proudly served the Blue Springs business community since 1962, but a lot has changed since then, and we decided it was time to update our mission and vision statements to better reflect the work we do to support our businesses today.

The mission of the Blue Springs Chamber of Commerce is to be the leading resource for business and an effective influential community partner. Our vision is a strong and prosperous economy that celebrates diversity, champions equity, and cultivates inclusion.

To help our members grow, the Blue Springs Chamber of Commerce has developed four pathways that help every business accomplish their goals: Learn, Strengthen the Community, Connect and Promote. By offering educational programs, community partnerships, several networking events and promotion opportunities, Chamber membership offers numerous benefits and keeps business owners on top of important, ever-changing issues and trends within their community and local marketplace.

In 2022 the Chamber hosted it’s 53rd annual Fall Fun Festival on Main Street in Downtown Blue Springs. It was a wonderful event, and we were excited to get back to tradition as our community continues to recover from the COVID pandemic.

In December, the Chamber held its annual Buy Blue Springs Receipt Rewards contest encouraging residents to shop local during the holiday season. Participants earned one drawing entry for every $10 spent at a Blue Springs business, and the lucky winner took home $500 cash!

The Chamber was also proud to partner with the Blue Springs School District to help connect businesses with the Real World Learning Program, as well as the City of Blue Springs, Downtown Alive! and the Mid-Continent Public Library by co-hosting a How to Start a Business Expo last fall.

No matter which path your business takes, let the Blue Springs Chamber of Commerce guide you on your journey!
