This year, more than ever, Small Business Saturday is a holiday our local businesses are counting on your support.
Since hit hard by COVID-19 related restrictions, so many of our members and local business owners are struggling to stay afloat. If there was ever a year to support shopping local, 2020 would be the year.
We encourage you to safely shop our locally owned and operated businesses this holiday season. We hope our Chamber member gift guide will help you gift your loved ones while supporting our local economy this year.
