About The Greater Keene Chamber of Commerce
The Chamber's mission to be YOUR VITAL LINK TO A BETTER COMMUNITY is fulfilled by engaging the diverse segments of our regional economy in our common goal of creating a better business community, a better community in which to live, play and raise a family. The Greater Keene Chamber of Commerce office is located at 48 Central Square in downtown Keene, NH. The Chamber is primarily a volunteer-based organization that works to serve the needs of the membership through a variety of networking, educational, marketing and community service programs.
Chamber President, Laura King, directs a staff of six full- and part-time people who serve the needs of Chamber members directly ... and indirectly by handling thousands of inquiries about our region.
The Greater Keene Chamber of Commerce is an organization whose mission is to advance the commercial, industrial, educational, cultural, recreational and general welfare of Keene and the surrounding area. From time to time there are issues that arise in the community that would have an impact upon this mission. In these circumstances it is appropriate for the Chamber to take a public position.
The process of determining which issues the GKCC will offer a public statement on is as follows:
The issue would first be brought to the President or an Executive Committee member.
The Executive Committee would review and analyze the issue. If there is consensus, then the issue would be brought to the full Board for discussion and decision.
The Executive Committee would use its best efforts to gather and report information on both sides of the issue.
