The Board of Directors & Ambassador Committee would like to thank you for your Membership in the Quad Area Chamber of Commerce. 

It is our goal to review where we are at in terms of membership, sustainability and strategic planning.  

We would like to ask you to take a few moments to answer the following questions.  Your information will be used to identify what the Board of Directors can do to support your business in the Quad Area.  

An email was sent from Chamber Nation.    Some members said they don't recall seeing it come through.    If you are getting the weekly updates etc you should of received it.   Have you taken time to add info@quad area chamber.org; Events@quadareachamber.org & Ambassador@quadareachamber.org to your contact list to tell her browser & email platform to allow email from these as safe.   

If you did not receive, you also have the option to log into Chamber Nation and under the member section look for surveys.   Each member is assigned a unique file, so you can only complete it once and can't forward to a friend.   

We would like to close the survey on 3/22/19.    Thank You for taking care of this timely.
