Did You Know?

Chamber Volunteers

Did you know that one way to take better advantage of your Chamber membership is to volunteer during one of our events? Not only does this help the Chamber earn non-dues revenue, it is also an opportunity for you to connect with other members of the Chamber. We usually have volunteer opportunities during our May Golf Tournament and Fall Fun Festival in September.

These are short networking opportunities for you. The people who work on Chamber committees and volunteer at Chamber events are business-people from our community. They are decision makers.

At the Chamber you should volunteer in an area you enjoy. It should be fun. Additionally, if you encourage other members from your business to volunteer, it can be a team building opportunity for your group. You can all wear your logoed apparel to stand out.

The Chamber staff wants to help you find your place and volunteer where you fit and where you can contribute. You can give back while promoting your business at the same time. Give us a call to sign up for an upcoming event today! (816) 229-885.
