March is Here – Stay Connected with the Grove Area Chamber of Commerce


March brings fresh energy and a full calendar at the Grove Area Chamber of Commerce, and we invite you to take advantage of the many ways to stay engaged, informed, and connected this month.


We kick off March with ribbon cuttings, welcoming new and growing businesses to our community, and continue with opportunities to learn, network, and serve. Educational programming like our Lunch & Learn, committee meetings, and leadership celebrations provide meaningful ways to grow professionally while staying connected to fellow members. Networking favorites such as Business After Hours and our Connection Luncheon offer relaxed settings to build relationships and strengthen partnerships.


March is also an important month for involvement. Members are encouraged to plug in through Ambassador meetings, Retail & Marketing discussions, and committee participation to stay informed on Chamber priorities and community initiatives. Community-focused events like the Grove Merchants’ Spring Open House further highlight the power of working together to promote local business. Mark your calendar for March 27-28 and plan to participate in the weekend specials and promotions around the lake region. It’s a perfect opportunity to BE LOCAL. 


As we look ahead, we want to remind everyone of an important membership detail. We are currently preparing our new Membership Directory and Chamber publication, scheduled for release in May. To be included in this valuable directory, membership dues must be current. This publication is widely used and distributed, providing year-round exposure for our members, so please take a moment to ensure your account and business information are up to date.


March is the perfect time to re-engage with the Chamber, attend an event, invite a colleague, or explore new ways to get involved. Your participation strengthens not only your business, but our entire Grove and Grand Lake community. We look forward to seeing you throughout the month and working together toward a strong and successful spring.


Find all the events and networking opportunities on our website at www.groveok.org. 


See you soon,

~ Amanda
