MISSION STATEMENT
The Manheim Area Chamber of Commerce is committed to serving members’
collective needs and enhancing a viable business climate in the Manheim area.STRUCTURE
The Chamber is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of 12 elected members serving a 3 year term (1/3 of the Board elected each year). The Executive Committee consists of the President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Executive Director. The Board traditionally meets the fourth Monday of each month and any member of the Chamber is invited to attend. Please check our calendar for any meeting date changes.
PERSPECTIVE
A business cannot stand alone. Collectively through the Chamber, businesses are able to accomplish what each could not do individually. Over one hundred and twenty members who share the same goals join together enabling all of us to accomplish more. We welcome you to share our excitement and help make the Manheim Area a greater place for you and your business. Your involvement will make a definite difference.
Do you want your business to grow? Get in touch to come together with others to brainstorm and learn how to get member business messages out there. Individuals are being sought to form two new committees: Benefits/Membership and PR/Event. If you have ideas on how to build business while connecting and having fun with other - we welcome need all you have to offer!
