Network and ConnectYour membership increases in value when you regularly attend membership meetings and events, talk to other members, and serve on committees. That’s when you get to make deep and lasting connections. Our Chamber is different than many larger ones because of the nature of our close-knit communities. We really strive to get to know our members and find out how we can be of service to them. It is not unusual to have a Mayor at a meeting. This personalized level of attention sets us apart. Deleted:
