Tips for a successful ceremony, along with ways we can assist you!

We encourage our members to celebrate their new business, new address, business expansion or anniversary. Having a ribbon cutting ceremony is a great way to gain exposure for your business.
- Have you opened a new business?
- Have you relocated to a new address?
- Have you expanded your operations?
- Are you celebrating an anniversary?
If you answered YES to any of these, then the Chamber is here to help you-our valued member, with your Ribbon Cutting Ceremony/Grand Opening!
