Hello fellow Chamber of Commerce Members and friends!

The McBride and District Chamber of Commerce had a great 2006 and 2007 looks to be another tremendous year for the chamber.  That being said, in the upcoming months ahead, the Chamber of Commerce needs to re-evaluate the direction we want to go to be a strong voice for business in McBride and area and to be there to work with the Village and provide input and support for initiatives for which they are currently working on, such as bringing in a Economic Development Officer, and others.

It is important that we set goals for ourselves, making sure that we stay on a clear course as to what we can achieve today, a month from now, a year from now etc.  One very important issue that we need to address is to make sure that the voice of our membership is heard, whether that be by e-mail or coming to the meetings one evening a month.  Everyone has their businesses to attend to and we realize that time can be short at the best of times, but it is important that we as chamber take on the projects that are going to best service our membership.  For this we need bodies and people to assist in any way which they can, many hands make light work.

We have been fortunate to have some very dedicated and hard working individuals in the chamber membership.  Everyone has something to bring to the table and it is important that the membership has their voices heard as to where the chamber direction should be.

Some of the projects in the past and present that the Chamber has been involved in are:
