Chamber Member Renewal Survey – Your Feedback Matters!
At the beginning of this year, we launched our Chamber Member Renewal Survey to gather valuable insight from our members. The survey allows you to share feedback on your membership experience, Chamber events, and which benefits you find most valuable—while also helping us identify opportunities to improve and better serve you.
Each renewal survey is sent three months prior to your membership renewal date, so be sure to keep an eye on your inbox. As a thank-you for completing the survey, participants are entered for a chance to win a $50 Chamber Check.
Congratulations to Ready 2 Dance! They are our Quarter 1 Winner of the Chamber Member Renewal Survey. Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete the survey—your feedback truly helps shape the future of our Chamber!
