Your Chamber of Commerce
How It Functions

The Chamber of Commerce functions through the working committees of the organization. Money, planning, inspiration, and guidance are useless unless the members work vigorously on the committee of their choice.

Careful study is made of the community needs and an action blueprint - the Program of Work - is designed.

The goal of the Program is always to create more dollars for more people and to improve the economic welfare of the community.
