Chamber Happenings!

Church Walk

New for 2013 we will be having a Church Walk rather than a House Walk.  The Albion Community has so many beautiful churches that we decided to ask the churches to open their doors on December 7, 2013 from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. for the community to tour. Churches that will be participating include Asbury United Methodist, Grace Christian, Albion Presbyterian, and Trinity United Methodist; also participating Brick Ark Inn Bed and Breakfast. There will be no charge for this event. 

ANNUAL MEETING

    January 16, 2014 will be the date for our 2014 Annual Chamber Meeting.  The annual meeting will be held at the Blessed Sacrament Church in Albion.  Invitations will be mailed in December. There are several seats that will be up for the 2014 Chamber Board so if you are interested in running for a seat on the Chamber Board please contact Chris Magnuson at chris.magnuson@anixter.com.

MEMBERS NEEDED for Chamber Board of Directors

There are several seats on the Chamber Board that are up for election. WE NEED HELP! If you are interested in running for a spot on the Albion Chamber Board of Directors please contact Chris Magnuson at chris.magnuson@anixter.com. We really need business owners and factory representation on the board so please consider becoming a voice in the Albion Chamber of Commerce.
