As we prepare to celebrate Independence Day, we wish everyone a safe and enjoyable Fourth of July holiday weekend. Grand Lake communities will be hosting a variety of patriotic celebrations, family activities, and fireworks displays throughout the region. We encourage you to take advantage of the many opportunities to celebrate and support our local businesses and organizations. A complete listing of area events can be found at www.groveok.org.


We also want to remind Chamber members that nominations are now being accepted for the Grove Area Chamber of Commerce Annual Awards Gala on Thursday, July 16, at Indigo Sky Casino. This special evening recognizes the outstanding businesses, organizations, educators, young professionals, and community leaders who help make the Grove and Grand Lake region a great place to live, work, and visit.


If you know a deserving individual, business, or organization, please take a few moments to submit a nomination. Recognizing excellence within our membership is an important tradition, and we look forward to celebrating the accomplishments of our Chamber members at this year's Gala. Be sure to watch your mailbox next week for the official Gala invitation, sponsorship opportunities, and additional event details.


Thank you for your continued support of the Chamber and our community. Have a wonderful Fourth of July weekend, and we look forward to seeing you at the Gala on July 16.


Have a great week,

~ Amanda
