Did anyone know what to expect from 2022 after living through 2020 and 2021? We were still determining what the business climate would be like on a local and national level. Supply chain issues became a topic we heard about quite a bit.  Inflation entered our vocabulary for the first time in years. We had to learn how to manage business around a variety of obstacles. Yet, it was not a bad year for businesses. It was a ripe climate for growth and new opportunities.

The word I would use to describe 2022 would be resilience. Each of our business partners in the Chamber of commerce displayed resilience in the face of the new year. As a result, every business is entering 2023 stronger, wiser, and ready to obtain the next level of success.

The start of a new year brings opportunities with fresh ideas, growth, and success to the next level. Here at the Chamber, we look forward to a year filled with supporting our business partners, continued growth, and learning opportunities.

Our word for 2023 at the Chamber is Prosperity. We will continue to work diligently to ensure our business partners can thrive and prosper. In addition, the Chamber itself will continue to grow and expand to ensure we offer ways for our businesses to grow.

We wish you continued success, good health, and good fortune in 2023.
