YOUR CHAMBER
PROGRAMS AND EVENTS Programs and events throughout the year are one way we deliver value to our members at the Texarkana Chamber. You can bet if we don’t have an event one week, we’ll have two the next. There are many opportunities and advantages for our members to engage and enhance their business, while enriching the community of Texarkana.
OPPORTUNITIES Ribbon Cuttings/Celebration Ceremonies
Golf Chamber Classic Each year in October, the Golf Chamber Classic hosts a golf outing and luncheon. It is a great time to network and showcase your business. Total Resource Campaign The Chamber’s inaugural Total Resource Campaign (TRC) was conducted in the fall of 2022. This comprehensive program offered several ways for members to increase their profile and visibility while supporting and sponsoring the Chamber programming that most closely matches their company’s own mission. The way the TRC sponsorship opportunities are designed, you are able to see the real value in each opportunity and the benefits available to you. Because of the wide range of opportunities, both in programming and in sponsorship levels, there are possibilities for member businesses of all sizes. And you can make certain that the sponsorship you select for your business will put your name in front of your desired target markets. Rather than approaching members repeatedly throughout the year about supporting individual events and programs, the TRC lets our business members take a more high-level and strategic approach to how they choose to maximize their Chamber investment for the entire year. If you are interested in participating in the next Total Resource Campaign please contact Natalie Haywood at nhaywood@texarkana.org.
While not only benefitting the Chamber member hosting the event, ribbon cuttings and celebrations are a great way to network. Everyone is welcome! Lunch & Learns Lunch & Learns are designed to be educational for our members. They are typically free to attend and hosted by a member organization. Topics can be industry specific or appeal to the masses. Business After Hours As a host for Business After Hours, you will have the opportunity to show off your place of business or your latest offerings. Each event has its own uniqueness and draws a different crowd. We typically have After Hours the fourth Thursday from 4:30-6:30 PM. Annual Celebration At the beginning of each year, the Chamber hosts their largest gathering of the year. Annual Celebration is a time to boast the accomplishments of the Chamber from the previous year, recognize members, and thank those involved with the organization. Women in Business Conference The Women in Business Conference is held each spring. The luncheon boasts top-knotch keynote speakers. It is aimed towards the working woman, whether you work from home, teach school, or run a multi-million dollar company, there is something for everyone. Engaging Texarkana Conference In the fall of each year, we host an educational conference geared towards medium to small businesses. Keynote speakers deliver powerful messages and pertinent information about the working world today. Breakout sessions and panels get down to the nitty gritty of what needs to be done to succeed.
