Why Host

Business Celebrations can be held for special occasions:

  • Grand openings
  • Remodel, rebranding, or opening of a new or second location
  • Milestone anniversaries

The primary benefit of a Business Celebration is to bring awareness to other members and the public.

Planning

Who should I invite?

  • Friends, family and your whole staff
  • Investors, contractors and associates
  • Clients and neighboring businesses

What should we include at the event?

  • Refreshments are nice touch but not required: you decide whether to serve cookies and coffee or a fully catered event
  • Tours
  • Staff to showcase products or services
  • Samples
  • Prize giveaways – capture business cards from attendees for follow up

The Chamber’s Role

What does the chamber provide?

  • We bring the big scissors, ribbon, present a certificate and take photos
  • An invitation is sent to the Chamber Business Celebration Committee for awareness (attendance is not guaranteed)
  • Photos are posted on our Facebook page within one week of the event
  • An announcement the event was hosted will be in the quarterly GROW e-newsletter for additional awareness
