HISTORY

Our History

L

ong before the first white man ever laid eyes on Whitefish Lake, a handful of native American tribes inhabited the area, most notably the Kootenai, the Pend d'Oreille and the Bitterroot Salish. Archaeologists say the Kootenai have lived in the area for more than 14,000 years, inhabiting the mountainous terrain west of the Continental Divide, and traveling east of the divide for occasional buffalo hunts. The Salish people occupied territory in Washington, Idaho and western Montana, and shared hunting and gathering grounds with the Kootenai and Pend d’Oreille tribes during the 1800s.

Though trappers, traders and waves of westward immigrants passed through the area during the second half of the century, it wasn’t until 1883 that the first permanent settler—John Morton—built a cabin on the shore of Whitefish Lake, just west of the mouth of the Whitefish River. Morton was joined by the forefathers of the local logging industry—including the Baker

In the mid-1850s, a group of trappers working the Flathead Valley’s rivers, lakes and streams for beaver and other pelts came upon a group of Indians pulling a native fish species— Whitefish—from a long, narrow lake… and suddenly, after tens of thousands of years, the lake had a name!

and Hutchinson brothers—in the early 1890s. Logging crews “boomed-up” their logs behind a dam built at the river mouth by the Boston & Montana Commercial Company, which, when opened, created a rush of water that helped float the logs down the river to Kalispell.

“...suddenly, after tens of thousands of years, the lake had a name!”

Personal, Financial, Physical & Environmental wellness...I’ll help you achieve all four.

Crews laying track for the Great Northern Railway entered the Flathead Valley from what is now West Glacier in 1891, and initially followed a route through Columbia Falls and Kalispell, then west through Idaho and Washington to the Pacific Ocean.

But the route west of Kalispell included a difficult climb over the Salish Mountains… a steep and tortuous grade winding slowly up one side, then just as painstakingly down the other.

It wasn’t long before the railroad’s survey team was sent back to Montana, charged with finding a new—and easier—route out of the Flathead Valley. And that’s when the two most important decisions in the small settlement’s short history were made: the decision to re-route the Great Northern Railway north to Eureka before heading west to the coast; and another to locate the railroad’s regional headquarters at the south end of Whitefish Lake.

The new Whitefish Townsite was surveyed and dedicated in June of 1903. Land was acquired, the rail yards were constructed, and a town was platted. Timber clearing and construction began in earnest, with most of the materials and supplies being hauled-in on a spur line built from Columbia Falls to the new townsite. The “cut-off” connecting Whitefish and Columbia Falls was Whitefish Chamber of Commerce

Timber, farming, ranching and the railroad were the backbone of the town’s economy—and culture—for the next 50 years. In time, summer cabins began popping-up along the shores of Whitefish Lake, and the strength of the logging industry began to wane. Modern technology (and equipment) led to a severe downsizing of the railroad’s workforce. The economy was on a downward skid, but changes were on the horizon for Whitefish. A nine-hole golf course and clubhouse were built in the 1950s, and in the early ‘60s another nine holes were added. By the mid-1990s, Whitefish Golf Course had grown to 36 holes—the largest (and best!) in the state.

Meanwhile, a few adventurous Whitefish folks had been bitten by the downhill skiing “bug” in the 1930s and ‘40s, and began hiking to the upper reaches of Hellroaring Mountain so they could ski back down an open slope into the Hellroaring Basin. In 1947, the first lift was built at what became Big Mountain Ski Area, these days known as Whitefish Mountain Resort, the cornerstone of our area’s winter tourist trade.

Whitefish is still a working railroad town. More than 300 workers are directly employed by Burlington Northern/Santa Fe, and hundreds of families rely on the highly-skilled— and high-paying—jobs that BNSF creates. Amtrak passengers arrive twice daily at the historic Whitefish Depot, and dozens of freight trains pass through the BNSF rail yards every day, en route from Chicago to Seattle and all points in between.

the farms and ranches that surround our town continue to produce enough beef, pork, fruits and vegetables to feed the Flathead—and then some!

In recent decades, tourism has risen to the top of Whitefish’s economic food chain. The Whitefish area has gained international recognition as a recreational and retirement haven—a special place to get away from the rat race, raise a family, run a business… and make a difference!

ou know, there’s more to Whitefish, Montana than just breathtaking scenery, a great ski hill, abundant wildlife and a spectacular alpine lake. But there’s no ignoring the obvious: the #1 attraction that brings visitors to our city—the Great Outdoors—also fuels an active lifestyle for residents that is second to none.

Just minutes from downtown Whitefish lies world-renowned Glacier National Park, 1,600 square miles of the most awe-inspiring mountain peaks, waterfalls, rushing streams and glaciers to be found in North America. As the shining jewel in the “Crown of the Continent” region, Glacier attracts millions of visitors from around the globe each year—folks who come to hike its 700+ miles of trails, sleep in magnificent 100-year-old log hotels, explore the crags and canyons that abound… and maybe catch a glimpse of a bighorn sheep, a herd of elk or a grizzly bear!

But when the hordes of visitors go home in September, Glacier becomes “our park” for the next nine months… a place we can go to recharge the batteries whenever we feel the need; a place to explore at our own pace and in our own way, whether it be on snowshoes, skis or horseback, in a raft, on a bike or in a tent.

“...there’s more to Whitefish, Montana than just breathtaking scenery...”

If Glacier is the crown, there are certainly plenty of other “natural jewels” to choose from in the Whitefish area, beginning with Whitefish Lake!

The southern shore of the lake and the ever-popular Whitefish City Beach are just blocks from the heart of downtown Whitefish. Fed by the

waters of Swift Creek, Lazy Creek and Hellroaring Creek, the lake is popular with users of all sorts: swimmers, kayakers, fishermen, water- and jet-skiers, paddle-boarders, ice fishermen, and every imaginable type of motorized—and self-propelled— boat known to mankind.

Whitefish Lake is 7 miles long, 2.5 miles wide and 222 feet deep at its deepest point. In addition to Whitefish City Beach—with it’s family-friendly (and roped-off) beach, manned lifeguard towers and picnic gazebos—the public can also access the lake at either Whitefish Lake State Park on the Lake’s west shore, or Les Mason State Park on the eastern shoreline of the Lake.

In the summertime it’s all about being outside, and there’s no better way to see nature than to hike (or bike) on one of the area’s many trail systems.

The Whitefish Trail currently offers more than 42 miles of natural surface trail, (with more being added each year), accessed by 12 trail heads. These trails are located in forested, rural environments popular for mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding and walking and are appropriate for families, outdoor enthusiasts, and bikers and runners of all abilities. If a casual stroll is more to your liking, try the paved Whitefish Bike & Pedestrian Trail System, which meanders around town and along the Whitefish River.

and Tally Lake. There are trails to accommodate everyone from kids on training wheels to the most veteran off-road riders… and road cyclists have a myriad of options in the area as well.

Mountain biking opportunities range from resort riding at Whitefish Mountain Resort to trail rides just outside of town at Spencer Mountain, the Whitefish Trail, Round Meadows

Whitefish has been named a “Top-50 Golf Destination” by Golf Digest Magazine, and it’s no wonder! Nine championship golf courses are within a forty-five minute drive of Whitefish, and

The Zip-Line Tour at Whitefish Mountain Resort is one of the most popular summertime activities on the hill, often requiring reservations days in advance. But the Alpine Slide and Aerial Adventure Park are just as popular with visitors and locals alike.

Another summertime adventure that’s growing in popularity is rock climbing… and it’s not just for the experienced!

purist, but there is also a menu of “gentler” options designed with families in mind.

If you’re looking to get a true “Old West” experience, maybe it’s time to saddle-up and hit the trail! The Whitefish area has several different stables and ranches that offer everything from 1-hour horseback rides to multi-day overnight trips into Glacier National Park and the Great Bear Wilderness.

Summer and fall are “prime time” for sportsmen in the Flathead Valley, as fishing and floating picks up on both the Middle and North Forks of the Flathead River and a hundred other, smaller, rivers, streams, lakes and ponds. Anglers flock to our area in search of west slope cutthroat trout, rainbows and whitefish, but they’ll occasionally pull in some hefty bull trout, a kokanee salmon or northern pike. Fall is deer and elk season in northwestern Montana, and those serious about filling their tags will find the hunting here to be both challenging and rewarding.

When winter sets-in here in Whitefish, we don’t go into hibernation… we catch our second wind! Winter sports abound here in the shadow of Whitefish Mountain Resort, where more than 3,000 acres of skiable terrain, 105 runs and 14 lifts constantly beckon to powder hounds and beginners alike. The lift lines are short, the people friendly, the snow plentiful, and—best of all—lift ticket prices are among the most affordable of any major US ski resort.

Off the hill, things are just as busy.

Whitefish is a wintertime mecca for snowshoeing, snowmobiling, dog sledding, skijoring, sleigh riding, ice skating… and cross-country skiing.

A wide array of groomed nordic skiing trails are available throughout the Whitefish area. Tours in Glacier National Park take you through breathtaking Whitefish Chamber of Commerce

scenery, and the Whitefish Lake Golf Club magically transforms into the Glacier Nordic Center in winter—a 15-kilometer Nordic touring center that is tracked and groomed for skating and classic skiing, with five kilometers of lighted trails for night skiing.

Another magnet of wintertime activity is the Stumptown Ice Den, an Olympicstyle rink in the heart of Whitefish that is popular with figure skaters, hockey players, curling enthusiasts and recreational skaters throughout northwestern Montana. The “Den” is open year ‘round, and hosts skating lessons and performances, hockey leagues, tournaments, and daily open skating for the public.

Northwest Montana offers some of the most incredible snowmobiling terrain to be found anywhere, and a trio of local businesses have the equipment— and know-how—to make sure your day on the trails is safe and enjoyable.

And if you’re looking for a mode of transportation with a little more “horse” and a lot less power, consider a trip to the Bar W Guest Ranch or the Cripple Creek Horse Ranch for a horse-drawn sleigh ride and dinner.

magine what it would be like to live in a place that most people feel lucky to visit once in a lifetime. The fact of the matter is… that’s what it’s like to live in Whitefish!

We don’t have to take a vacation to visit Glacier National Park, to grab some “first tracks” at one of America’s top ski resorts, to catch a Broadway play, or to experience the excitement of a small-town rodeo. All that and more is part of our day-to-day life in Whitefish.

It’s been said that our community is an island of culture, surrounded by an ocean of mountain recreation. And whether you’re looking for that perfect piece of mountain-inspired art, you want to be “wowed” by a Broadwaycaliber show, or you’re ready to enjoy some Rocky Mountain bluegrass… you’re bound to find what you’re looking for in Whitefish!

The streets of downtown Whitefish are peppered with galleries, retail shops and exhibits for the art lover. Many of our restaurants feature exhibits by local artists, and while Big Sky scenery and wildlife is a popular subject of local artists, there’s definitely something for everyone in Whitefish—from pottery to metalwork, from western to modern.

Whitefish Gallery Nights takes place on the first Thursday of each month from May to October, with participating galleries & shops featuring the works of guest artists… and offering free food and drink to arts aficionados.

The non-profit Stumptown Art Studio, located in the heart of downtown Whitefish on Central Avenue, is also the “heart” of the local arts scene. The studio offers art classes, camps and workshops for people of all ages; they help organize the monthly “Gallery Nights” events; they provide gallery space for local artists; and they provide

“...our community is an island of culture, surrounded by an ocean of mountain recreation.” art & outreach programs to Whitefish schools and “special needs” organizations serving our area’s veterans, senior citizens and troubled youth. Best of all… you can walk-in anytime to fuse glass, create pottery or create a Montana-made mosaic!

The Flathead Valley is home to a number of wonderful museums,

including the Stumptown Historical Society Museum in the historic Whitefish Train Depot. Just 10 miles south of town, the city of Kalispell is host to the renowned Hockaday Art Museum, the historic Conrad Mansion and numerous fine art galleries.

The Glacier Symphony Orchestra performs classical, holiday, and pops concerts each season, accompanied by world-class (and emerging) guest artists. The Glacier Chorale is a 75-voice symphonic choir, and together the two have brought the world’s greatest music to the Flathead since 1981—including the acclaimed Festival Amadeus, which kicks-off in early August.

Live music abounds in Whitefish.

Once the dinner hour is done, the bars and nightclubs of downtown Whitefish take on a life all their own. Live bands and DJs keep the dance floors packed at a half-dozen downtown watering holes—including several with outdoor, rooftop and patio bars.

Several different downtown clubs offer live music, DJs, stand-up comedy and/ or dancing 3-4 nights a week throughout the year, including Casey’s, the Great Northern Bar & Grill, the Remington, and the Craggy Range. The Boat Club, Piggyback BBQ and the Great Northern Brewing Company also host live music on occasion.

One of the fastest-growing trends in Whitefish—and throughout Montana—is the move toward “craft” brewing and micro-distilling. The Great Northern Brewing Company has been a fixture in downtown Whitefish for decades, and in recent years has become a “production” craft brewery as well, distributing its popular “Wheatfish,” “Good Medicine” and other lines throughout Montana and beyond.

Newer to the Whitefish scene is the Bonsai Brewing Project, which opened a public tasting house and beer garden on Wisconsin Avenue in 2015 to rave reviews and huge summertime crowds.

Newer still is the town’s first microdistillery, Spotted Bear Spirits, located a half-block off Central Avenue in the Whitefish Chamber of Commerce

Whitefish hosts a number of popular food (and drink) events each year, including “Feast Whitefish”—a multiday festival that spans 10 days (and two weekends) in mid-May. The Feast begins with an opening night “Distiller’s Fest” featuring a dozen different Montana distillers and a half dozen local restaurant serving up gourmet hors d’oeuvres and appetizers, and continues with a series of unique wine- and beer- maker dinners, collaborative (and competitive!) cheffing events, and more. In addition, a pair of brewfests— as well as the Whitefish Winter Winefest—are held each year to benefit the Shuttle Network of Whitefish, which operates the free SNOW Bus shuttle service between 2018 Community Guide & Member Directory

t’s been said that no one throws a party like Whitefish, and for good reason. The natural beauty of the area, its colorful history and cultural amenities make it the perfect place to hold special events, fairs and festivals that are uniquely Whitefish.

Most every weekend throughout the summer—and frequently throughout the year—you can find an art show, a music festival, an athletic competition

or street fair in Whitefish. Through the years, several of Whitefish’s signature events have grown to near-legendary proportions, most notably the “granddaddy of ‘em all,” Whitefish Winter Carnival.

Held the first weekend in February for the last five decades, Whitefish Winter Carnival has been named one of the Top 10 Winter Carnivals in the World

One of the Northern Rockies’ top food and drink festivals returns in May… Feast Whitefish! Spanning 10 days (and two weekends), the Feast begins with an opening night “Distiller’s Fest” featuring a dozen different Montana distillers and a half dozen local restaurants serving up hors d’oeuvres and appetizers, and continues with the Great Bonsai Burger Battle, the Feast Grand Gala, and a full-week of outstanding dining values at restaurants throughout Whitefish.

The summer event season in Whitefish kicks-off in mid-June with the 5th Annual Whitefish Woody Weekend, a three-day celebration of classic American wooden boats hosted by The Lodge at Whitefish Lake. Dozens of vintage hardwood cruisers will be on display at the Lodge Marina; a boat parade around Whitefish Lake is planned for Saturday evening, and the craft (and their captains) can be seen buzzing across the lake at full tilt on Sunday, during the Woody Weekend Poker Run.

Held the first weekend in July in Whitefish Depot Park, the three-day Whitefish Arts Festival features the work of more than 100 regional artists and craftsmen, as well as a variety of food vendors and entertainment.

Festival Amadeus—Montana’s only week long classical music festival returns to Whitefish in August for its eighth season. Glacier Symphony & Chorale Music Director John Zoltek leads the Festival Amadeus Orchestra with special guest artists in a series of performances at the Whitefish Performing Arts Center.

One of the highlights of summer in the Whitefish area is picking wild huckleberries… and another is the Huckleberry Days Arts Festival: three full days of small-town events, and one big-time arts & crafts show! More than 125 local and regional vendors strut their stuff in Depot Park for three days in mid-August, it also features a climbing wall for the kids and the Chamber’s Huckleberry Dessert Bake-Off! Another fundraiser for our wintertime bus system, the SNOW Bus Summer Brewfest is held downtown in Depot Park. Beautiful late August weather, 40 different ice-cold, Montana-made beers on tap, and a little bit of live music… what’s not to like?

ontana is one of the most desired places in the country to live, work, raise a family and retire. And Whitefish is one of the top real estate markets in Montana… and for good reason.

“In 2017, the residential real estate market... posted its best numbers in years.”

From spectacular waterfront properties on Whitefish Lake to slope-side lodges and condos at Whitefish Mountain Resort; from sprawling Montana ranches to quaint older

homes in the historic downtown district; from mountaintop retreats to cabins in the woods… the Whitefish real estate market has something to fit your taste and lifestyle.

In 2017, the residential real estate market continued to gain strength in Whitefish, posting its best numbers in years. A number of new single-family home, condominium and apartment developments began to take shape last year, and that trend is expected to continue in 2018.

New building permits are also on the rise in Whitefish, as approved projects that “stalled” during the recession

ne reason that growing families choose to live in the Whitefish area is the quality educational experience that our local schools offer, from preschool all the way through college.

Perennially ranked among the top school districts in the state, the Whitefish School District serves more than 1,500 students enrolled at four centrally located facilities: Muldown Elementary School (K–4), Whitefish Middle School (5–8), Whitefish High School (9–12), and Whitefish Independent High School, which provides a non-traditional setting for grades 10–12.

Whitefish students are expected to complete a rigorous academic program from kindergarten through grade 12.

Major emphasis at the elementary level focuses on strong reading, language and math skills; the middle and high school programs add to that strong

foundation a variety of fine arts programs, along with advanced placement classes in English, Government, Science and Math.

The district’s Virtual High School (VHS) program is open to students beginning in the 8th grade, offering more than 300 courses to those interested in challenging themselves them with a diverse curriculum taught online by nationally known instructors.

“Perennially ranked among the top school districts in the state...”

High school students also have the option of attending Flathead Valley Community College while still at WHS through the Running Start program.

Running Start gives eligible high school juniors and seniors the opportunity to

get a start on their college career by earning dual credit simultaneously at WHS and FVCC. One advantage of small town life is that parents have plenty of opportunities to help improve the quality of their kids’ education, and that’s particularly true in Whitefish. The Bulldog Boosters and Parent Teacher Association are two of the strongest service organizations in town, and play an active and important role in assuring that Whitefish kids get the best possible education.

The residents of Whitefish stand strong behind their schools, in recent years approving two multi-million dollar projects to fund construction of the new Whitefish High School and Muldown Elementary. Our local schools and students are also supported by the Whitefish School District Education Foundation, a community based non-profit organization established to maintain and enhance the educational opportunities, programs and standards of the Whitefish School District.

Whitefish Christian Academy educates children in Pre-K through High School. A classical, Christian school, WCA achieves academic excellence strengthening the whole student: mind, body and spirit.

The hospital’s emergency department is certified as a Pediatric Prepared Facility, and the Imaging Department is equipped with 64-slice low-dose CT, MRI, ultrasound, X-ray, DEXA and digital mammography.

More than 150 physicians and 80 allied health professionals are on staff at the hospital and its outreach clinics. In addition to the hospital/medical office complex in town, North Valley operates a pair of seasonal urgent care clinics to serve residents and visitors alike—the Base Lodge Clinic at Whitefish Mountain Resort (open during ski season), and West Glacier Clinic (open from Memorial Day through Labor Day).

Kalispell Regional Medical Center (KRMC) has been a center of health care excellence in the Flathead Valley for more than 100 years. KRMC is both a community hospital and a regional referral center, offering the area’s most advanced health services and medical technology.

stable, well educated workforce, an outstanding location, cutting-edge internet connectivity and an unsurpassed quality of life combine to make Whitefish the ideal spot for business success—both now and in the future!

Add to that a new wave of major private and public investment—and a number of Chamber initiatives designed to strengthen and grow the local economy, and we think you’ll agree... Whitefish, Montana is where your business ought to be!

Commercial development—and planned development—in Whitefish is as active as it’s been in more than a decade, and is approaching levels only seen in the pre-recession “boom” days. Two new hotels were completed in 2016, and more are on the way, including an 80-room Marriott suites hotel on Hwy 93 South. Three new restaurants, a dozen retail stores and the new $16 million City Hall/parking structure complex opened for business in 2017.

been vacant and sitting on the market for years have sold in recent months, with development plans forthcoming.

“...development in Whitefish is as active as it’s been in more than a decade...”

Development—and re-development— are also taking place in the 93 West and Wisconsin Avenue corridors, and both of those areas are poised for more of the same in coming years.

Plans were approved in December for a 14-acre commercial development along the Whitefish River on the site of the old Idaho Timber property, including a new hotel, microbrewery, restaurant, artisan and light industrial businesses.

There’s no doubt about it... it’s an exciting time for Whitefish! And the Chamber is focused on three separate-

but-equal strategies for enhancing the Whitefish economy:

• Helping existing businesses get the help they need to survive, grow and thrive;

• Attracting new companies to

Whitefish that will complement the existing business community; and

• Identifying and implementing

programs, projects and events that enhance the Whitefish visitor experience, and help to grow tourism in the shoulder and winter seasons.

In addition, the Chamber promotes our community on a local, regional, statewide and global basis, in an effort to:

• Attract new business and investment to Whitefish;

• Create new, high-paying jobs

through business relocation, new business start-ups and the expansion of existing companies;

A 60-unit apartment complex was completed last year adjacent to the Hampton Inn, as were several new office and mixed-use projects on/along Baker Avenue south of the downtown area. Plans to re-zone and develop a stretch of the Hwy 93 corridor south of Whitefish are currently being considered by the Flathead County Commission, and properties that have 36

to prospective employers, investors and residents; and

• Improve our community by

encouraging planned economic development, strong civic leadership, better education and increased cultural and recreational opportunities.

At its annual Retreat & Planning Conference, the Chamber Board restated its commitment to working collaboratively with a host of different groups and agencies who share common interests and constituents, including: the Whitefish City Council, Montana West Economic Development, Whitefish Convention & Visitors Bureau, Flathead County Economic Development Authority, Big Mountain Commercial Association, Whitefish Winter Carnival, Glacier Park International Airport, six other Chambers of Commerce and the Flathead County Commission... just to name a few.

State Farm, Bloomington, IL

promoting tourism; by identifying and addressing challenges faced by the local business community; by providing our members with innovative opportunities to market their products and services; and by representing the interests of business at all levels of government.

Recognizing that tourism is the lifeblood of our economy, the Chamber works in partnership with the Whitefish Convention & Visitors Bureau to bring visitors to Whitefish, and to guarantee that their vacation is as enjoyable as possible. The Chamber operates the city’s official Welcome Center, helping to keep our visitors informed (and busy) once they get here. In addition, the Chamber directs operation of a seasonal Visitor Center in West Glacier—at the gateway to Glacier National Park—in an effort to attract park visitors to explore the Whitefish area.

GETTING CONNECTED The Whitefish Chamber is where people come together to do business, to get involved and to make our community a better place. Members can devote as much or as little time as they like, but by being engaged and/or getting your employees engaged, you enhance the value of your company’s membership and support the Chamber’s efforts to build a thriving community.

Whitefish Chamber of Commerce

• Monthly Networking Events— Members gather on the third Thursday of each month at a host business for “Gone Fishin’,” the Chamber’s popular after-hours networking event. Great food & drink, good company, a chance to do a little business… you get the idea.

• Topical Business Seminars— The Chamber’s “Lunch-n-Learn” series brings in local experts to talk about issues of interest to local business owners in a comfortable format. Topics range from tax code changes and HR compliance to Facebook marketing and “Networking 101”… and everything in between.

• Luncheons & Awards Gala— Informational luncheons are held throughout the year on topics of interest to the business community, and the Chamber hosts the city’s annual community awards ceremony each winter, recognizing the outstanding contributions made to Whitefish by local individuals and business owners.

2018 Community Guide & Member Directory

GETTING INVOLVED The Whitefish Chamber of Commerce is about one thing—your business. And that’s why your active participation in the Chamber is so crucial. We’re committed to focusing on your needs, but we rely on our members’ input and leadership in the process to assure that we’re serving you—and our community—as best we can.

The Chamber’s annual work program is planned and executed with the assistance of dedicated board, Trustee, committee and task force members, all of whom put their unique perspective, experience and enthusiasm into projects that benefit our member businesses and the community at large.

Committee membership is open to any active Chamber member who is ready, willing and able to make a difference.

Board of Directors Elected by the Chamber membership, this 13-member group meets monthly to oversee Chamber operations and establish policy. The Board is responsible for developing, approving and implementing the organization’s annual Program of Work and Budget.

Government Affairs Committee The GAC is an advisory committee to the Board of Directors. Its primary responsibilities are to monitor governmental matters that could impact the community or local businesses, to present recommendations to the Chamber Board for approval, and to initiate appropriate action.

In 2017, Chamber Board, GAC and/or staff members attended all 22 regular City Council meetings and countless workshops, hearings and public meetings, weighing-in on issues of importance to the business community.

The GAC’s priorities for 2018 include participating in the city-initiated “corridor study” for the Highway 93 South business district; encouraging implementation of the Whitefish Strategic Housing Plan (see below); investigating the need/potential for summertime public transit service; and encouraging the wise investment of TIF funds in economic development projects throughout the city.

Workforce Housing Task Force This group has been leading the effort to address our community’s critical shortage of affordable workforce housing. In partnership with the Whitefish City Council, the Task Force in 2016 conducted a comprehensive Workforce Housing Needs Assessment, and in 2017 it spearheaded development of the Whitefish Strategic Housing Plan, which was adopted by the City Council in November.

Member Services Committee The MSC advises the Board of Directors on programs, projects and activities that directly affect (and benefit) the Chamber’s member businesses. The Committee meets quarterly to assist in the planning of our monthly Gone Fishin’ networking events, the quarterly Lunch-n-Learn seminars, Chamber luncheons and the Annual Awards Gala.

The MSC is responsible for overseeing the Ambassadors Program, for planning and implementing Membership events, and for developing new programs and projects that will benefit Chamber members… including programs designed specifically to meet the needs of high tech businesses and the next generation of young business owners/managers.

Whitefish Chamber of Commerce

Economic Development Task Forces The Chamber’s economic development efforts are spearheaded by the Chamber’s Trustee Council, but input from all Chamber members is needed to help identify and address issues and/ or problems of major significance.

A Chamber Task Force on improving commercial air service to our region led to the formation of Glacier AERO, a group that now contracts with major airlines to bring additional direct flights serving new destinations to the Flathead Valley. AERO’s efforts led United Airline to add weekly wintertime non-stop service from Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport to Glacier Park International Airport four years ago, and to the addition of wintertime non-stop service to San Francisco in 2016.

Chamber Trustees

T

he Whitefish Chamber’s Trustee Program brings together the area’s top business and civic leaders in an effort to develop a shared vision for the future of Whitefish, and to prepare our community for the unique challenges of the 21st Century.

The Trustees spearhead the Chamber’s governmental affairs and economic development efforts, identifying and tackling the “big picture” issues that affect today’s business environment.

They focus their concern, expertise and resources on addressing issues which confront our community, region and state, to ensure a solid future for free enterprise and our citizens. Their commitment to Whitefish—and to the Chamber—is the foundation for our continued prosperity.

Chamber Trustees work with the Board of Directors to develop and implement the Chamber’s economic development strategy, identifying programs, projects and initiatives that will improve—and diversify—our town’s economy.

The Chamber’s Trustees have been the driving force behind a number of major economic development efforts, including the formation of Glacier AERO, a non-profit organization dedicated to expanding commercial air service to the Flathead Valley. For the last four years AERO has contracted with United Airlines to add direct wintertime service between Glacier Park International Airport and Chicago’s O’Hare Airport, and they continue to work closely with airport and airline officials to capitalize on opportunities to expand and enhance air service to our area.

Chamber Trustees invest time & resources in the future of the Whitefish economy.

Other projects initiated by the Trustees include:

• Development of the Whitefish Strategic Housing Plan, which was adopted in late 2017 to begin addressing the critical shortage of affordable workforce housing in Whitefish;

• Creation of the new West Glacier Visitor Information Center;

• Development of the Chamber’s new website;

HH C I SATM OB RE YR O F C O M M E R C E

Special Events Committees One great way to get both involved and connected is to serve on an event committee… or to work a volunteer shift or two at one of our popular special events. Feast Whitefish and the Great Northwest Oktoberfest each have committees that meet for months in advance to help plan, promote and organize the event, and Oktoberfest alone requires help from more than 150 volunteers.

• Publication of the annual Whitefish Guide—the city’s primary business attraction and retention tool;

• Creation of the Great Northwest Oktoberfest, a two-week event designed to help boost Fall shoulder season tourism;

• Development of a comprehensive Government Affairs Program for the Chamber, assuring that the interests of local business owners are represented at the state and local levels.

Expanded commercial air service, addressing the critical workforce housing shortage, redevelopment along Highway 93 South, identifying new strategies to boost shoulder and winter season visitation, and supporting new and existing businesses will continue to be top priorities for the Chamber—and its Trustees—in 2018.
