Glenwood Lakes Area Chamber & Welcome Center

 

SAFE & OPEN under NEW Guidelines

 

Though our building is now staffed during regular business hours, we prefer to conduct as much business as possible via technology. Please call ahead to schedule an appointment, or let us know if there is something we can have ready for you. We can also do curbside service, or drop off. 

 

Our conference room is currently closed to large gatherings. We will send an update when we are ready to host meetings again.

 

 

Please visit our website for the most up-to-date information. Don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything we can do for you during this time!

  • Each Vendor is asked to have a list of items for sale                                                        This will allow customers time to decide for quick purchases.
