Mandi, the director of the chamber, is a fantastic resource and is excellent at connecting her chamber members with each other. I’ve created a ton of relationships and garnered a bunch of business from those SWR chamber relationships both from chamber members as well as referrals branching from those relationships. I highly recommend checking out one of their events and you will be glad you did!”
