Letter From the President

I want to give a huge thank you to our “Shine On” Women Leading Business Conference & Marketplace Committee for all their hard work in making our 10 th annual conference a huge success! We had over 150 women at the MCL Grand for a day of inspiration and connection, and we all left with our spirits uplifted! Events like this don’t happen by accident so a special thank you to everyone who sponsored, donated, or volunteered for this! We appreciate you more than you know!
 
We’re excited to introduce a new membership option for small businesses. It’s a one-year membership for only $100 offered to any business owned and operated by just one person. We know the value of Chamber membership and we want to give these small business owners an opportunity to learn how we can help grow their business. If you know someone who fits this profile, please encourage them to join today. You can get all the details below in this email.
