Message from our Executive Director

Every business, regardless of its size or background, has a unique story to tell. The FLRCC provides plenty of opportunities for small business owners and service professionals to share their stories through networking events, spotlighting members through marketing, making introductions, and facilitating collaborations. The Chamber can also help members by providing business guidance, mentoring and by facilitating conversations with local officials.

We offer spaces for business owners to connect, share ideas, and explore potential partnerships. Our aim is to create an environment where small businesses and professionals can thrive together. And those are the stories everyone wants to hear.

79 new members joined the Chamber last year seeking networking, promotional, and professional development opportunities. We hosted over 40 events last year for our members to meet, make connections and build business relationships. We are proud of the many collaborations these events have fostered.

My ask of you is to get involved: attend our events, help organize them, sponsor where you can and provide feedback and help to fellow members. This really is the best way to get the most out of belonging to the Chamber. People want to do business with people with a proven track record, someone they feel comfortable with and who they trust. What better way to demonstrate all these things than by working together with other members on a program, event or collaboration.

My pledge to all of you is to keep providing these opportunities; to network, to learn, to connect you to the resources and referrals you need to thrive and succeed. And I appreciate your commitment to seeing the Chamber do the same. So, together, we will have even more to celebrate this time next year.

Sincerely, 

Jeffrey Ware, President
