Chamber Dues
When it comes time to write a check we often ask ourselves, what do I get out of
this? I’m sure that many people ask this question when it is time to pay your
annual dues investment to the Chamber.
Two things are important for us to remember: First our dues are an INVESTMENT in
our community. The Chamber’s primary responsibility to, “promote the economic,
commercial industrial and educational interests” of Decatur. In short, your dues
bring customers, clients, and dollars to Decatur.
