March 11, 2026

The Grove Area Chamber of Commerce has a full calendar ahead, and we invite you to stay engaged over the next couple of weeks by attending our upcoming ribbon cuttings, networking opportunities, and member events. These gatherings are a great way to stay informed, build relationships, and stay connected with our growing business community.


We are also looking forward to representing our community during Grove & Grand Lake Day at the State Capitol on April 7, where we will help showcase the strength, tourism, and economic impact of our region.


In addition, we are excited to host Oklahoma Lt. Governor Matt Pinnell for a Legislative Luncheon on Friday, April 17. This will be a great opportunity for members to hear updates from the state and learn more about initiatives that impact tourism, workforce, and economic development in Oklahoma.


As we continue production of the 2026–27 Grove & Grand Lake Vacation & Relocation Guide, we want to sincerely thank the members who have already reserved their advertising space. This publication is one of our most powerful marketing tools for promoting our businesses and the entire Grand Lake region.


If you would still like to be included, please remember that March 25 is the deadline to reserve ad space. We encourage members to secure their spot before the deadline.


Thank you for your continued support of the Grove Area Chamber of Commerce. We look forward to seeing you at upcoming events.


Have a great week,

~ Amanda
