A New Way to Stay Connected

Jul 21, 2026 | From the CEO

What to Know, Where to Go and How to Grow

One of the most important roles of the Chamber is helping our members stay informed, connected and engaged.

That work happens in many ways: through events, advocacy, business resources, member stories, community partnerships and the day-to-day conversations that help us understand what businesses need to succeed.

As our work has grown, so has the amount of information we share. That is a good thing. It reflects an active Chamber, a growing business community and a region with a lot happening.

It also creates an opportunity to be more intentional.

This week, we are rolling out a refreshed Chamber newsletter system designed to make our communications easier to navigate, more useful to members and better aligned with the way people actually engage with information.

The goal is simple: help you quickly understand what matters, where to plug in and how the Chamber can support your business.

Our refreshed newsletter ecosystem will be organized around three core ideas:

What to Know

Timely updates, Chamber news, advocacy information and key business issues that help members stay informed.

Where to Go

Upcoming events, networking opportunities, ribbon cuttings, member gatherings and community activities where members can connect and participate.

How to Grow

Resources, business-building opportunities, educational content and practical tools to help members strengthen their organizations.

This structure gives each message a clear purpose. It also helps us sort information in a way that makes it easier to find what is most relevant to you. Together, they create a more focused way to stay connected to the Chamber and the broader business community.

As we roll out this refreshed approach, we encourage you to stay connected in more than one way. Check the Chamber calendar. Visit the website for updates. And, importantly, follow the Chamber on social media.

If you are only seeing us in your inbox, you are only seeing part of the story.

Our social channels are one of the best ways to see timely reminders, member highlights, event photos, advocacy updates and the everyday activity happening across the business community. If you are only seeing us in your inbox, you are only seeing part of the story.

The Chamber’s work is wide-ranging, but the purpose is consistent: helping businesses stay informed, visible, connected and supported. This refreshed newsletter system is one more way we are making that work easier to follow and easier to use.

We are excited to share it with you.
