Your Chamber @ Work

Please update our NEW address in your systems.

2025 is off to an incredible start for our team at the Grove Area Chamber of Commerce. We have officially moved to our new Chamber office located at 311 South Grand Street. If you are in our area, stop in and say hello!  


There are a lot of things on the radar and some checkpoints for our members to tackle as we move forward in this new year. First, we have launched our new website and system with Growth Zone. If you have not created a new account yet, please go to www.groveok.org and click on Members. Under that heading, you will see Member Login. You will see a section on that page to create a new account. If your email doesn’t register to allow you to do this, please call our team at 918-786-9079 and we will add your email to the system to allow you to complete the setup of your account. 

 

Second, as we update our records and get Growth Zone rolled out, please confirm your contact details are correct. If you have made any changes, we need your help in making sure your information is correct. This is where we will pull the data for our upcoming 2025/2026 Vacation & Relocation Guide.  Again, if you need assistance with access to the Growth Zone program, please contact us.


Mark your calendar for Tuesday, February 25th for our new series of the State of the Region events. We had over 100 members join us back in December for our legislative update. This time, we will host a lunch forum on Transportation projects on a local and state level. We will be joined by county elected officials and representatives from the Oklahoma Department of Transportation. Tickets are $20 for members and $25 for non-members. Sponsorships are available and more details can be found under events on our website (www.groveok.org). As always, please call the Chamber if you have any questions. This February lunch forum will take the place of our regular networking luncheon. We will begin rotating these two activities each month and will push out updates weekly through our newsletter. Our next networking luncheon will be in March at the NE Tech Grove BIS location.


We have an aggressive program of work set for 2025 and we know each member will benefit greatly from the new programming and initiatives that our team will continue to introduce over the next few weeks. We thank you in advance for your continued support as we work to make the entire region a great place to live, work, visit, and raise a family.


Have a great week,

~ Amanda
