Meet & Greet with The Caroline Foundation

We hosted a Member Meet & Greet with the Caroline Foundation, and it was a wonderful evening of connection and learning.

Members enjoyed delicious bites while mingling with one another and hearing more about how the Caroline Foundation supports local nonprofits that provide medical and health‑related services to thousands of Caroline County residents each year.

Through its annual grants, the Foundation continues to strengthen the well‑being of our community — one project at a time.

Women in Business Lunch & Learn at Clayton Farms!

We wrapped up our Women in Business Lunch & Learn series with a festive gathering at Clayton Farms’ beautiful glass greenhouse, decorated for the holiday season. Our guest speaker, Eileen Simmons, shared the inspiring story of her family’s farm — from its humble beginnings as a roadside stand in 1977 to the thriving third‑generation market it is today. She highlighted how Clayton Farms works to source and sell local products whenever possible, and how the farm has continued to grow and evolve over the years.

The afternoon was filled with meaningful conversation, delicious bites, and a special follow‑up on the vision board workshop we held earlier this year. It was the perfect way to celebrate the season while supporting local business and women in leadership.

As we turn the page to 2026, we look forward to new opportunities, inspiring speakers, and continued growth together — strengthening both our businesses and our community.

Thank you to our WIB Council- Michelle Hall, Jessica Mumbulo, Tia Bell, Marissa Clark, Lisa Schmitt, and Amy Wilson.

🥪First‑Ever Chamber Sandwich Sale

On November 14, we hosted our very first Sandwich Sale on Market Street — and it was a delicious success! Thanks to the generosity of Holy Smoke BBQ, we were able to raise funds in support of our Chamber building project.

We are so grateful for all the pre‑orders and the incredible support from our community. Your participation helped make this inaugural event both fun and impactful, and we look forward to bringing you more tasty opportunities in the future!
