The Claresholm
Chamber of Commerce was resurrected in
1994 and has maintained a continuous
membership of approximately 100 members. Our organization is made up of
volunteers representing a huge
cross-section of the many types of
businesses in Claresholm and we are very
excited about the future of the town and
our organization.
Over the past ten years, we have evolved
into an organization whose main goals
are to promote Claresholm as a strong,
united community encouraging new
business as well as finding ways to help
our existing businesses grow and
prosper.
Over the past several years, we have:
held successful trade fairs every
February.
With over 80 booths at our last four trade fairs, we have a
successful track record
for this event. Join us on February 4 & 5, 2011 for our next
trade fair.
