Reasons to Join the Chamber
A vital Chamber of Commerce is the core of any successful community. By becoming a member of the SACC, you’re not just showing your support for the community and other area businesses; you’re actively contributing to the development, protection, and enhancement of the commercial, professional, and cultural landscape. The chamber organizes and/or contributes to local events and lends its voice to local governmental issues that help grow the area. Directors attend the monthly Town Board, Economic Development and Sewer meetings to offer the perspective of local small business owners.
