Chamber Bucks are a way to get YOUR company name out there, they are sold year-round, and they can be a great way to reward your employees!
Chamber Bucks keep shopping dollars local--they are accepted by nearly 100 Chamber-member businesses. Companies that accept Chamber Bucks are reimbursed for the amount of the certificate minus $1 (ex. the business would receive $24 from a $25 Chamber Buck).
There's no cost to being added to our Chamber Bucks list.
Many companies purchase Chamber Bucks for their employees. Chamber Bucks also make great prizes! To order Chamber Bucks and/or be listed to receive them, call our office at (217) 222-7980 or e-mail Membership Manager Laura Rheinecker by
