Chamber Unveils New Brand and Logo |
|
|
| The Quad Chamber of Commerce
Across the country, chambers of commerce are evolving to meet the needs of a new generation of businesses. In regions where municipalities are closely connected, collaboration is key. Our rebrand reflects this shift; embracing growth, relevance, and unity for the future. We are proud to announce that the Webster Groves, Shrewsbury, Rock Hill, and Brentwood Area Chamber of Commerce will become The Quad Chamber of Commerce Effective January 1, 2026 |
|
|
Why the Change?
Business today thrives on connectivity. By representing a quadrant of four municipalities, we create a stronger, more regional presence that supports entrepreneurs and small businesses in a way that is forward-thinking and inclusive. This new identity positions us as a hub for innovation, collaboration, and community growth. Our New Brand Promise Rooted in Business. Growing in Community.
This tagline captures the essence of who we are: deeply anchored in supporting local businesses while fostering vibrant communities. It’s about honoring our history while reaching toward the future. |
| |
|
| The Symbol: The Oak Tree
Our new logo features an oak tree, a powerful emblem of strength, resilience, and growth. Like the oak, our chamber stands firm through changing seasons, its roots deeply embedded in the communities we serve. Its branches stretch toward new opportunities, symbolizing the success and possibilities ahead. A Reflection
"Silent it stands tall against the changing seasons. Its trunk is strong and tells stories of its past, its bark a roadmap of time. From its mighty base, roots go deep into the earth, anchoring it not just to the soil, but to the very soul of the communities that have grown up around it. Spring brings new branches reaching for the sun, a vibrant testament to the endless possibilities that lay ahead. Branches stretch toward the sky, an intricate lattice of success, each leaf whispering promises of future growth. The oak tree is the center around which the chamber of commerce business community rotates."
|
|
|
What’s Next? The Quad Chamber of Commerce is more than a name—it’s a vision. Together, we’ll continue to champion local businesses, create opportunities for growth, and strengthen the bonds that make our communities thrive.
Welcome to the next chapter. Welcome to The Quad Chamber of Commerce. |

President's Message -Outgoing Remarks
As I conclude my term as President of the Chamber, I am filled with gratitude, pride, and a deep sense of appreciation for what we have accomplished together. This past year has truly been record-setting in every sense, and it has been an absolute privilege to serve an organization as dynamic and committed as this one.
We celebrated a sold-out Heart of the Community Awards Banquet, the earliest sellout in our history. Our Golf Scramble not only sold out but did so with an enthusiasm that showcased the strength and unity of our business community. And our Santa’s on the Loose 5K reached a new milestone, welcoming a record number of runners and families. These achievements aren’t just numbers—they are reflections of a chamber that continues to grow, thrive, and inspire. Serving as President has been one of the great honors of my professional life. I am especially grateful for the many new friendships formed along the way. The connections we build here extend far beyond boardrooms and events—they strengthen the fabric of our entire community.
I want to extend my sincere thanks to our Executive Team—Jerry, Tamara, and Tim. Your tireless efforts behind the scenes keep everything running smoothly, and your leadership is a major reason this chamber continues to shine. To my fellow board members, thank you for your dedication, your time, and your unwavering commitment to serving on behalf of the chamber. Working alongside you has been truly rewarding. And last but certainly not least - thank you for all of our chamber members - you welcomed me and made me feel right at home from the very beginning.
As we pass the torch, I want to warmly welcome the incoming board. You are stepping into an exciting moment in our chamber’s story. I have every confidence that you will carry our momentum forward into 2026 and beyond, continuing to elevate the work we’ve started and reaching even greater heights.
Thank you again for the opportunity to serve, for your partnership, and for making this year one I will always be proud of. Our chamber is strong, our community is vibrant, and the future is full of promise With Gratitude,
Greg Campbell

| “Honoring Our Past, Growing Our Future: A Holiday Message from Your Executive Director”
Happy holidays! As I quickly approach my second anniversary as your Executive Director, I’m filled with gratitude for the privilege of serving this remarkable business community. The Chamber has always been a gathering place—a hub where people come together where ideas and real relationships take root. Commerce is, at its core, the exchange of goods and services, but it only thrives when community and business support one another. It’s an authentic two-way street, and our Chamber stands proudly in the middle of it.
Membership value is job one. Running a business can be one of the loneliest endeavors anyone can take on, and the Chamber exists to walk beside you—to hold your hand when needed and celebrate every milestone along the journey. We provide forums for personal and professional growth, from thought leadership and presentation skills to creativity, confidence building, networking, and resource connections. In 2025, membership grew, but even more encouraging was the consistently strong engagement at our events. As we approach 2026, we begin a bold new chapter as the Quad Chamber of Commerce—new name, new look, and new opportunities to strengthen our authentic culture. Wishing everyone a joyful, healthy, and prosperous New Year!

2025 Golf Scramble – Bigger Than Ever!
We’re thrilled to report that this year’s Scramble was our biggest yet—drawing more competitors, energy, and community spirit than ever before. We’re proud to have partnered with Big Bear Roofing, our presenting sponsor, whose generous support helped make this event a huge success. Baseball Hall-of-Famer Ozzie Smith joined us on the green, meeting fans, signing autographs, and bringing unforgettable excitement to the tournament.
Thanks to our participants and sponsors, we were able to present a $5,000 donation to the PGA REACH Foundation. Pulling together community support, star power, charitable giving, and record-breaking participation, our 2025 Golf Scramble truly embodied the spirit of the Chamber. Thank you to everyone who made it possible |

The 13th Annual Santas on the Loose Sets New Record!
|
|
|
This year’s Santas On the Loose was an incredible celebration of community spirit and generosity. Together, we raised $3,500 for Saint Louis Crisis Nursery, an organization that provides a short-term safe haven for more than 4,000 children each year whose families face emergencies such as illness, homelessness, domestic violence, or overwhelming parental stress.
We were honored to partner with them again and thrilled to see a record turnout of 615 runners, surpassing our previous record of 510 set in 2017!
A heartfelt thank you to our Presenting Sponsor, Vitality Unlimited Spa, our Kids Dash Sponsor, Azar Orthodontics, and all of our amazing “Santa’s Helpers” who made this event possible. Your support helped make this race an overwhelming success! |

| Women’s Networking Group: Empowering Women in Business
In the summer of 2024, a new and exciting era of connection and collaboration began within our Chamber community. On August 7, 2024, we hosted our very first Women’s Networking Group (WON) Luncheon—and it exceeded all expectations! We anticipated around 20 attendees… instead, 50 women registered and filled Cyrano’s Café with energy, conversation, and genuine support. That incredible turnout made one thing clear: creating this forum for women was not just a good idea—it was essential.
Why WON Was Formed
The idea originated from a Chamber member who previously participated in a women-centered networking group and understood the immense value it brought. Inspired by her experience, our Chamber launched WON to bring that same sense of empowerment, collaboration, and connection to our local business community. Our monthly luncheon attendance continues to grow, averaging 40–50 women each month. |
|
|
Our Mission and Focus
WON exists to support professional women at every stage of their journey—from business owners and executives to emerging leaders. Our purpose is to provide: ✨ Meaningful opportunities to connect and build community
✨ A supportive space to share experiences and industry insights
✨ Professional development that elevates women’s voices
✨ Encouragement for career advancement and personal growth
Most importantly, we offer a safe, collaborative environment where women uplift women. Women Leading in Our Chamber Over the past year, our Chamber has experienced significant growth driven by women entrepreneurs and professionals. Approximately 33% of our total Chamber membership is made up of women-owned businesses, and this number continues to rise.
The future of business ownership in Webster Groves, Shrewsbury, Rock Hill, and Brentwood is being shaped by strong, innovative women. |
| | |
Join Us! WON Luncheons are held the first Wednesday of every month at Cyrano’s Café.
Whether you're looking to network, gain new insights, or simply connect with other inspiring women, there’s a seat waiting for you. Together, we are building a stronger, more empowered community—one connection at a time.
