President’s Message

President’s Message

Let the games begin!

It looks like the warm weather is here to stay and that means it’s time for Chamber gatherings and outdoor adventures.

On June 15 - 16, the Chamber will join forces with the City of Dublin and Dublin City Schools to host Dublin’s Corporate Charity Cup. This fun-filled, two-day event promotes teamwork and friendly competition but also impacts the lives of many through fundraising for local charities. There are volunteer opportunities aplenty! You can register to help at DublinChamber.org/CharityCup23.

We’ll hit the links on July 17 for the Dublin Chamber Golf Classic at The Club at Tartans Fields. You and your guests will receive VIP treatment all day with food and beverages, great golf, and games on the course. It’s a great day to connect and unwind while teeing off with your favorite Chamber golfing buddies while meeting new ones along the way.

If you’re not a golfer, there are a number of other ways to participate, including sponsorship and company recognition. You can donate door prizes, silent auction items, or sign up to spend the day with us as a volunteer. You can learn more at DublinChamber.org/Golf23.

Are you looking for ways to engage with the Chamber and our business community this summer? Sign up to host one of our popular networking events! Hosting allows you to invite members in to learn more about your business. We’re always looking for speakers with inspirational stories or experiences to present at Chamber events. Give us a call at 614-889-2001, we’d love to hear from you.

As always, we appreciate all you do to support our community and remember, your Chamber is here to help.
