Supporting businesses and the community in working together to make Grand Ledge
a great place to live and do business
Thank you to everyone involved in helping us bring you the Night Lights Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting last week. Special thanks to The City of Grand Ledge, all our parade volunteers, emcees, parade participants, sponsors and the police department for keeping us all safe!
Countless hours went into all the decorations that businesses and groups put in to make their floats and light up their cars and trucks! We truly appreciate your time and efforts.
Thank you to "I Love My City" for staying long past the parade was over to clean up the streets! We all really appreciate that!
The Christmas Parade was our last event of 2019. Thank you to all our $2000 and up sponsors for supporting the 10 community events we do a year. We could not bring the events to the city without your generous support of the Grand Ledge Chamber of Commerce!
We have starting posting Year In Review event recaps on our facebook page.
You can see some fun pictures and event numbers from 2019.
Thank you to our 232 members and 65 businesses who support what we do to make Grand Ledge a great place to live and do business!
Wednesday January 8, 2020 is our next monthly chamber breakfast meeting.
Chamber member SNAP Fitness will be our featured speaker to start us off for the year!
Make plans to join us at 9am in the community room of the City of Grand Ledge Administration Building at 310 Greenwood Street to network with fellow chamber members!
Coffee and Bagels will be served.
