The
Chamber is continuously looking toward the future and our organization strives
to take advantage of a strong local and national economy. We are focused on
expanding the value we provide to members, as well as enhancing the process of
identifying and acting on current and future issues which affect all businesses
in the Greater Hermiston area.
Central to these goals are the partnerships we facilitate and nurture.
Partnerships which encourage the collaboration of business, educators and
elected officials to build a common vision of what our community will become in
the next decade. This is accomplished by developing partnerships that are
results-oriented and which foster regional growth and cooperation. As your
Chamber, we make each year a year of innovative growth and development.
Without our members support, our mission of promotion, economic development and
membership services would not be possible.
