Chamber Minute | Wednesday Business Connections & Supporting Public Safety Our Wednesday Business Connection luncheons continue to be one of the most valuable ways for our business community to stay informed, connected, and engaged. 🤝🗓️ Last week, we had the honor of presenting the Coos County Sheriff’s Office with a $4,161 donation gathered from Chamber members during our Annual Awards Banquet. Sheriff representatives shared how meaningful that support is — not only because the funds will help purchase much-needed equipment for the SCINT team, but because it’s a powerful reminder that the business community values the work they do every day. 💙👮♂️ The Sheriff expressed sincere gratitude, sharing that with current funding shortages, fewer officers, and fewer resources, departments are being forced to find creative ways to continue providing public safety. He also shared that this donation lifted morale and reminded their team that their service truly matters. 🙌✨ Looking ahead, April’s Wednesday Business Connections will feature important public forums designed to help our members and community stay informed before the upcoming primary elections. These conversations matter — and informed voters make stronger communities. 🗳️🌱 Join us most Wednesdays at KoKwel Casino Resort Coos Bay, and be sure to check […]

Chamber Minute | Ribbon Cuttings, Business After Hours & Home Show Momentum We’re kicking things off this Friday, March 13 with a Ribbon Cutting for Coastal Photo Studio at 785 Virginia Ave in North Bend at 4:00 PM. Ribbon cuttings are always a great reminder that new ideas, entrepreneurship, and investment continue to grow in our community — and we encourage everyone to come help welcome Stephani’s creative new business. 🎀📸 Then next Friday, we’ll gather again at 4:00 PM for another ribbon cutting — this time for Acting Up inside Pony Village Mall. It’s exciting to see new energy and creativity continue to fill local spaces, and these celebrations matter because they show support for the people choosing to invest right here in our region. ✨🎭 On Thursday, March 19, join us for Business After Hours at the Coos Art Museum from 5:00 to 7:00 PM.
