The Chamber is delighted to share that our Business Directory categories for Minority-Owned Business and Woman-Owned Business are now live!

You can now easily find our Minority-Owned Business or Woman-Owned Business through our Business Directory. Once in our Directory, click on "Search by Category" and from there you have the options to select Minority-Owned Business or Woman-Owned Business, along with the rest of our sub-directories. Identifying specific members within these categories would require you to also input specific keywords such as "massage" into the "Search by Keyword" box.

Call for Volunteers: Chamber Archives Review

The Arlington Chamber is gearing up to celebrate our centennial in 2024. In preparation for this celebration, we are seeking volunteers from our membership to help review our archives. These archives include pictures, slides, newspaper clippings, and Chamber printed materials from the 1950’s to the present day. Our goal is to compile a timeline of significant milestones the Chamber has accomplished over the past 100 years. This celebration belongs to our whole membership, and this is a chance to be a part of it.

If you are interested in donating some of your time to this effort, please contact Preston Ross, PT Executive Assistant to the President & CEO at [email protected].
