Host & Sponsor: SSM Health St. Clare Hospital
The management team and staff of SSM Health St. Clare Hospital are excited to welcome everyone to their facility for a wonderful lunch while highlighting the hospital and all that it offers the Fenton area and Greater St. Louis region. We will also hear from a staff member who will lead a presentation on community health and how SSM St. Clare outreach encompasses the overall well-being of the population it serves. This includes not only addressing medical needs through quality care and preventive services but also tackling social determinants of health like access to education, nutrition, and safe environments. The hospital aims to foster partnerships with local organizations to promote health education, enhance access to care, and address disparities, ultimately creating a healthier, more resilient community.

The Fenton Chamber welcomes business community members to attend the Fenton Chamber's Coffee With Candidates event. This is a great opportunity to connect with candidates running in this November's general election and even ask any questions you may have. We have invited candidates whose districts encompass Fenton and surrounding communities. Please note that this is not a debate, but rather an open-house style forum for candidates to meet with and share their platform with business leaders. There is no charge to attend; we just ask that you RSVP so that we - as well as the candidates - can adequately prepare for the event.

In Your Neighborhood! Meeting members & supporting businesses... one neighborhood at a time!
The Fenton Chamber is committed to meeting members where they are. Through the "In Your Neighborhood" program, we make it EASIER for our members to connect with Fenton Chamber staff and fellow members, as well as meeting fellow business owners near them that they may not meet at other events. With each of these IYN events, we select/target a "neighborhood" location by choosing a meeting place for breakfast/lunch/after hours. All are welcome to each IYN event, but we do make an effort to personally invite members (event non-members) within close distance of that location to attend.
No event fee; attendees pay their own way
