Chamber of Commerce Information

 

THE FUNCTIONS OF THE CHAMBER: The Chamber of Commerce is a private, not-for-profit association of businesses that have come together to advance the financial, industrial, and civic interests of the Seeley Lake area. As a result, the Chamber strives to support projects that lead to a stronger economy and an improved quality of life.

An annual membership investment finances programs that are designed to meet the goals set by the Chamber membership. The Chamber is governed by its Board of Directors, who set policy on behalf of the full membership. The Chamber staff works with an energetic crew of volunteers to achieve its goals. Business leaders who become involved with the Chamber can help actively promote programs that will support the needs of the community. The Chamber is a proactive organization that gets results and meets community needs.

OUR CHAMBER MEANS BUSINESS: The Chamber's strength is derived from its diversity and number of members. Both large and small businesses, from virtually every profession, are represented within our organization. These members make the Chamber one of the most effective and respected business associations in the area, providing both the input and the manpower to see that the needs of area businesses are met by city, county, and state governments. As the unified voice for business, the Chamber accomplishes collectively what no one business could do alone, dealing with issues that affect the community's development, commerce, and quality of life. The Chamber harnesses the creative energies of the business community to accomplish together what could not be accomplished individually.

BENEFITS OF CHAMBER MEMBERSHIP: Membership in our Chamber carries with it a number of significant benefits that help make businesses successful in an increasingly competitive Seeley Lake area marketplace.

BUSINESS REFERRALS: Chamber staff responds to numerous of telephone and mail inquiries about the Seeley Lake area, including local and national requests for recommendations on goods and services. The Chamber refers these requests ONLY to Chamber members.

INFORMATION CENTER: The Chamber invites you to visit our office on Highway 83 in Seeley Lake. Our brochure racks offer a wealth of information about the area. Members also have an opportunity to place their business brochures at the Chamber, which serves thousands of visitors, relocators, residents, and business people every year.
