3 WAYS TO SUPPORT YOUR CHAMBER

In these challenging social and economic times, we are stronger together! Your Chamber has never worked harder for the community than we have in 2020. With the cancellation and/or postponement of several events (50% of our revenue), combined with the loss of over 70 members, your Chamber needs your support now more than ever!

Three ways you can support your Chamber:

• If your business is in a position to move up a membership level, your increased investment would be greatly appreciated. Contact Jami to learn more.
• Reach out to other businesses in the community and ask if they are members. If they are, thank them! If they are not, encourage them to join the Chamber to become invested members in the community. 
• Shop local and support small business

Your membership is an investment in our community and a commitment to goodwill, education, and development. Thank you for being an investor in the Willmar Lakes Area!

WELCOME TO OUR NEWEST MEMBER!

Following a presentation by Amber Backhaus - Vice President of Public Affairs with Minnesota Auto Dealers Association California Cars at the November meeting, the Public Policy Committee made a recommendation to oppose the Walz Administration California Car Mandate. The WLACC Board approved to advocate against the mandates with its membership and the community.
