One of the greatest gifts you can give is your time.

Volunteering is an incredibly positive way to give back to the community and develop a new skill. Giving back to the community is something the Chamber is incredibly passionate about. We have a number of volunteer committees, as well as a volunteer board.

Many of the Chamber's current and past successes have resulted from the work of its committees, tapping into the influence and expertise within the local business community to get things done and to generate new ideas.
