Chamber Meetup Groups & Calendars
In April, 2009 the Chamber Board of Directors voted to adopt Meetup as the Chamber's official event notification site. You are encouraged to sign up for any and all groups you are interested in in order to receive notice of events and meetings pertinent to your interests. Each group posts a separate calendar of events so that only events and information you are interested in are brought to your attention through email notices. After signing up, your personal Meetup page will have a calendar of all of the events for all of the groups you sign up for.
