Meetings

Meetings are every third Wednesday at 12 noon at the Council on Aging on the corner of Decatur Road and M-60.

Got Ideas?

Suggestions, suggestions, suggestions; got some for us? Talk to a board member or attend the monthly meeting if you have any ideas to offer! The meeting is held on the third Wednesday of every month, and takes place at 12 noon. We welcome attendance by members, and we hope that you’ll take the time to share your thoughts on membership with us.

Old School

The Chamber has had a DVD made from a video depicting the 1935-37 Downtown Cassopolis business area, including a local parade that took place at the time. You may order a copy from the Chamber for $20. A special archival copy of the DVD was donated to the Historical Library from the Chamber. For more information contact Patty Backus at (269)445-2399.

Volunteers Sought

The Chamber is looking for several (retired?) business people to act as Chamber Ambassadors. The goal is for these volunteers to learn what the Chamber is doing, to drop in and visit our members and to develop personal contacts. We want you to get to know them and their business, and to find out how the Chamber can help them. Follow-up phone calls throughout the year might also be needed in order to stay in touch. If you have any interest in this volunteer opportunity, please call Patty Backus 269-445-2399.

Working Together!

Edwardsburg, Dowagiac and Cassopolis Chambers are now working together. We are making an effort to share information and are displaying each others business brochures. The Edwardsburg Chamber office is located in G.W. Jones Bank, and the Dowagiac Chamber office is downtown in the train station.

Upcoming Events!!

Keep your eyes peeled for announcements on upcoming events! A Chamber Mixer is in the works, where you’ll be able to mingle with colleagues and fellow business community members while taking part in an activity that is centered in our Chamber area.
