It's a New Year!!

 Time to Renew your
Chamber Membership
 
BUT YOUR DUES REMAINS
THE SAME!!
office sign 
Once again the Chamber Board of Directors voted
 to keep the annual dues of the Powhatan Chamber of Commerce the same.  In these tough economic times we are trying to do what we can to help our Powhatan businesses, even though the dues, at this time, does not  cover our costs of running the Chamber. We rely on the Festival of the Grape to help keep the Chamber office running. The Board of Directors is choosing to support it's membership by keeping our dues the lowest around.
 
Watch your mail for your Chamber renewal form and Annual Meeting Social Invitation.
