business in our community, network with other local businesses/organizations, and gain valuable knowledge
for you and your employees.  As a member you are able to participate free of charge.  

Back to School Clothing Give Away:  Introduced in 2009, the Chamber office and member businesses accept
donations of gently used clothing and new clothing items to be given out as a “free yard sale” type of event to
anyone in the community who is in need right before the kids go back to school. This is just one way we give
back to our local community & promote your business by volunteering for this event.

BEANO:  In August your business/organization will be invited to participate with our BEANO fundraiser.  You
may organize a team to represent your business/organization by providing shift coverage during the BEANO
games at the festival and your company logo will be displayed during your shift and your company name will be
announced during your shift as well.  All proceeds help the Chamber with their annual events .
Fall Street Festival:  At the end of October members and local businesses/organizations are invited to join us
for the Fall Street Festival.  One block of  Main Street is closed for local children to come trick-or-treat and
participate in fun activates and games!  All participating businesses/organizations are able to promote their
services to adults attending the event as well.

Holiday in the Park:  The Saturday after Thanksgiving we sponsor the Holiday in the Park.  Schools & Chamber
members are invited to decorate a tree in Bogart Park and to participate in the parade that welcomes Santa to
Clinton.  After the parade local children are able to visit with Santa at the Senior Center located in Bogart Park.
Clothe-A-Child:  In conjunction with  many gracious sponsors, we are able to provide new clothing to local
children in need.  They are able to shop for new shoes, coat, and winter clothing.  Many local children are
assisted through this program and in is truly a happy occasion for volunteers and participants. Chamber
members are encouraged to volunteer to shop with children and this is a good way of promoting your
business. And giving back to you community

Other Events (Non-Annual)
Meet the Candidates : Held in an election year. The purpose of this forum is to provide the voters of  our area
the opportunity to hear the candidates for elected office outline and discuss their ideas and issues in a
spontaneous framework.  It is hoped that the voters will be able to receive an accurate perception of the
abilities of all candidates, and thus, make enlightened decisions in the upcoming election. Chamber members
and the public are encouraged to attend.
Chamber members are encouraged to participate in providing questions to the chamber for the candidates to
be asked in the  form and also to volunteer to be a moderator for this event.
