CHAMBER

BENEFITING MEMBERS PAST AND PRESENT

T

he Chamber of Commerce Serving Lexington, Buena Vista and Rockbridge County traces its origins back almost a century. In January, 1923, a group of over 100 business and civic leaders met at the county courthouse to organize the Lexington Chamber of Commerce.

Later, the Buena Vista Chamber of Commerce was started, and in 2008, the two organizations merged to form the Chamber than now represents and serves all three jurisdictions in the Rockbridge area. The Chamber supports local businesses and organizations through promotions, training opportunities and networking. It acts as an information source for businesses and individuals considering relocating to the area. In the area of government affairs, it works in concert with other Chambers supporting legislation that benefits the business climate hereand organizes local candidate forums every year. The Chamber works in partnership with our jurisdictions to sustain our region as one community, working together to promote economic development and a healthy work environment. The Chamber is also committed to developing a skilled and diverse workforce through the work of our Workforce + Education committee. If you’re looking to move to the Rockbridge area, or if you are a local business owner and interested in joining with the hundreds of other community-minded business owners, contact the Chamber office at (540) 463-5375 or email us at info@lexrockchamber.com.
