Presidents Message
I wanted to take a moment and invite all the business owners (both store font and home based) to join the Chestermere Chamber of Commerce!  There are so many benefits and we would love to hear from you!  

Also, wow there is a lot of collaboration going on throughout the City between businesses!  So exciting to see!  From restaurants, and our local brewery, supporting the Taapas Tour and the Taste of Chestermere coming up on July 1 st  at John Peake Park.  Chestermere continues to grow at a rapid pace and we are seeing new businesses coming in to the City every month.

We would love to introduce you to the community so please reach out! Enjoy a happy and successful summer!  

A special shout out to all the people who continue to serve, participate and volunteer for the Chamber!
