Member Spotlight

Our Member Spotlight is one of the easiest ways to get your business in front of more local customers — and it’s completely free with your Chamber membership. By taking just a few minutes to fill out our quick form, your business will be featured on our website and highlighted on our Facebook page. These spotlights consistently receive some of the highest traffic and engagement across our platforms, and many members have shared that they’ve gained new customers directly from being featured. It’s simple, effective, and a great way to tell your story. Check out a few of our recent spotlights below and complete the form to get yours scheduled!

This isn't just for new members! We want to feature all of our members throughout the year. This form takes less than 5 minutes and can mean new business for you. 

NEW Ambassador Program

We are launching an Ambassador Program to help welcome and connect new  and existing members. Volunteer Ambassadors will serve as a friendly point of contact, helping businesses get involved and build relationships within the Chamber and community.

NEW Marketing Training

We’re planning to offer a marketing training and want to make sure it covers the topics that matter most to you. What marketing skills or strategies would you like to learn more about—social media, email marketing, branding, advertising, or something else?
