Thank you for 2018 Admiral Teresa Jergenson for your years of service to Glenwood Waterama.

This year’s event was truly a success and that has a lot to do with continued leadership over the years as well as several volunteers, workers, board members, city staff members, city/county law enforcement and emergency personnel!

It certainly doesn’t happen overnight, but was another wonderful event to add to the history books!

Chamber Members - Its time to Make 25 more Visitors Packets & Bags

It is time to prepare 25 more visitor packets of information and gift bags.

We have received information and gifts from some chamber members already, however, if you haven't dropped off any information or gift item and would like to be part of this program, please provide your pamphlets or a promotional gift by July 20th.   You can drop your information and items off at the Glenwood Lakes Chamber & Welcome Center Monday-Friday, 10:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.  

Chamber members can also provide information about their businesses and or their business cards to be given out and displayed on our board of information in the lobby area.

We have many groups and businesses that use our meeting room, so we do have a great deal of people coming in and out of our building.  This is a great way for you to advertise your business, agency or organization.
