Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

It’s hard to imagine that more than half of the year has already passed us. As we continue to advocate and provide resources to all members, you can be confident that we are continuing to serve the membership with value added benefits for upcoming networking and resource opportunities. Like you, we are also still navigating uncertain times. Our committees are continuing to pivot our services when necessary and will continue to do so from now until the rest of the year as needed to comply with COVID precautions. While this is still challenging for us, we want to take into consideration first and foremost everyone’s safety.

We are currently in the process of planning our 2021 Women’s Empowerment Session. Tentatively scheduled for November, we are hoping to map out a different format than last year. We are looking at a one-day event with a dynamic opening keynote speaker. We’d like to extend a sincere thanks to our Title Sponsor, Dow Chemical. Their support and the support of all of our sponsors is integral to our programming. As we finalize the planning, more details will be posted at www.riverregionchamber.org.

We’re also excited to be kicking off the next class for Leadership River Region. Congratulations to our recent graduates! We are grateful for each of you and excited to see how the training you received will help you in your roles. Applications are currently open for the Class of 2022.
