The Chamber
Often people think of a chamber as the staff, or the office they reside in, or even the events they host (e.g. “I’m going to the Chamber!”). The Chamber of Commerce is our members – the collective group of local businesses, individuals, and organizations that voluntarily align themselves with the Chamber’s mission to help build a stronger, more prosperous community. It is a working partnership, solely supported by private industry. Members actively invest their time, money and talents into initiatives that ensure Highland Park is attractive to residents, visitors, and businesses alike. Our Chamber reflects a diversity of business types, from service to retail, professional to not-for-profit. No two businesses are exactly alike and that is what makes our Chamber and community unique.
