Each month our member meetings are hosted over lunch to best accommodate the busy schedules of our Small Business and Local Business members. Meetings are hosted by rotating Chamber Member venues and caterers. We do our best to keep costs affordable, the food delicious, and to find locations that fit well into your busy schedules.
Guest speakers are identified by Board and Committee Members based on member feedback and upcoming community events. If there are topics or speakers you would like to hear from, don’t be shy!
Our Member Meetings are always open to the public, so you do not have to be a member to buy a ticket or attend. Members, however, are encouraged to bring business cards, flyers, or promotional materials to share with all attendees for any exciting developments on the horizon of your Member business(es).
We also use this time to share upcoming Chamber Event Information; give attending Members front-row access to coveted sponsorship opportunities; and raise monies for our Annual Student Scholarship Program with a 50/50 Raffle.
If you are considering membership, or just want to see what the St. John-Dyer Chamber is all about, please consider attending!
