Successful entrepreneurs never stop learning about their industry, business, and customers. They look for ongoing training opportunities for themselves and their staff. Free resources for small business owners help you break into the global marketplace, assess economic growth, and identify new business opportunities. We invite you to take advantage of these free resources throughout the year!

We had a great time helping the Red Cedar Speedway Celebrate their 50th Anniversary with a ribbon cutting at their season opener! The track, located on the east side of Menomonie, is a ⅜ mile, semi-banked, clay track featuring various car classes. The Red Cedar Speedway is a must-visit destination for any racing enthusiast.

In celebration of National Travel and Tourism Week, Governor Tony Evers and Tourism Secretary Anne Sayers visited Eau Claire to explore the area as well as meet members of the community. Tammy Simon, our Tourism Manager, was able to join their group in a tour of the Eau Claire Childrens' Museum and Sculpture Tour Eau Claire. Our partners in the Chippewa Valley have done a fantastic job of welcoming visitors from all over, and in turn, driving economic impact throughout our community.
