2024 Manufacturing Week

Each year our Chamber will host events & activities to celebrate National Manufacturing Day, held on the First Friday of October. Manufacturing is vital to our region. We will host a week full of opportunities for our members to participate in tours and educational sessions to see what is happening in our own backyard. Manufacturing Week will help you get a behind the scenes look at many of our Chamber Members in the Manufacturing industry. The week will conclude with our monthly "First Friday Breakfast" event with a message related to manufacturing.
