Huron Chamber launches opportunity to connect

The Huron Chamber of Commerce has launched a new series Chamber@Work that complements the Chamber’s popular Business After Five events.

Midday open houses hosted by the Huron Chamber from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. invites the community to step inside, meet local business owners and their teams, and learn more about the diverse businesses that help Huron County thrive.

“Chamber@Work is exactly what the name says - the Chamber in action, highlighting our members and fostering connections right at their workplaces,” said Colin Carmichael, Executive Director of the Huron Chamber of Commerce.

“It’s an easy, casual way for people to get to know the businesses and people who make up our community, and just an importantly, it’s a chance to learn more about how the Chamber itself works for them.”

Each event will serve a dual purpose: giving the host business valuable exposure within the local community while also providing an informal touchpoint for anyone interested in learning more about the Chamber’s work, services, and how membership supports business success in Huron County.

According to the local Tim Hortons locations will sponsor the series, with each event featuring complimentary coffee and treats, proving as another example of the local Tim Hortons owners supporting the community.

The first Chamber@Work open house took place on Wednesday, June 26 at the Wilfred McIntee and Co. Realty office in Wingham, hosted by Jodi Snell, realtor.

Snell is a trusted local real estate professional and also serves as the Chair of the Board of the Huron Chamber of Commerce, making this event a fitting launch for the series.

Community members are invited to drop in, enjoy a coffee and a snack courtesy of Tim Hortons, meet Jodi and her colleagues, and learn more about how she and the Huron Chamber work to support a vibrant business environment in Wingham and across the county.

According to the Huron Chamber, no RSVP is needed.

Businesses interested in hosting a future Chamber@Work event are encouraged to get in touch. There is no cost to participate.

Hosting a Chamber@Work is an opportunity to open your business’ doors, share your story and help strengthen local business relationships.
