- school and library safety and literacy programs
- Thomas Mitchell Historical Society
- Universalist Church
- youth dances at the Community Center
- Santa breakfast sponsored by the American Legion
The Chamber's fiscal year runs from January 1 to December 31, with officers elected annually. The group meets at the American Legion Hall, 111 Center Avenue North, from Noon to 1:00 p.m. on the second Thursday of each month. Lunch cost is $5 and is catered by Pegg's Pantry. New members and guests are always welcome. |
