A Message from the Executive Director |
|
It has been a privilege to serve as the Executive Director since June 1,1999. I recently have tendered by resignation to the Board of Directors effective July 31, 2024. During my tenure, I have gained valuable experience and have had the opportunity to contribute to the growth and success of the DBR Chamber of Commerce and our communities. I am extremely grateful for the support provided to me during my time as Executive Director. I am proud of the many accomplishments and services I have been able to provide to the Chamber and our members.  However, I have decided that it is time for me to move on to new challenges and opportunities.  Thank you for the opportunity to serve my communities for the past 25 years, I will undoubtedly take these experiences to my future endeavors. I will always regard my time at the DBR Chamber of Commerce as a significant chapter in my professional career.  Vicki Street |

Business After Hours - April 25 at Venture X Join DBR members and Venture X and their partners for an evening of informal networking. Venture X located in Deerfield is for companies who want more of a professional coworking experience. They believe that “pro-working” can be great for entrepreneurs but also for more established businesses. Just because you need workspace on flexible terms doesn’t mean your business should sacrifice quality, amenities, or a professional work environment that aligns with your brand.  The DBR Chamber of Commerce is extending an invitation to all businesses that are interested in hosting future "Business After Hours" events. It's a fantastic chance to put your business in the spotlight and attract the attention of potential clients and partners.
