Enjoy refreshments and light appetizers while taking in the sights of the clubhouse and trying your hand at the golf simulators and putting green. No, this event is not only for golfers - everyone is welcome... their slogan is "Everyone Only" after all! What is Gimme Golf Club, you ask? "It's a place for people who love the game of golf and love camaraderie that comes along with it. It's a club for everyone, and every skill level. It is a club for inclusion...everyone only".

Networking events like this provides a fun, laid-back platform for connecting with fellow Chamber members and guests while strengthening business relationships within the community! So, mark your calendars and join us after hours!

6/13/2024Ribbon Cutting: City Distributions - Fenton Cannabis Dispensary
Join us for a Ribbon Cutting event with the City Distributions team celebrating the opening of the Fenton Cannabis Dispensary, located in Olde Towne Fenton. Meet the ownership and staff, plus learn about all that this dispensary location has to offer for individuals' holistic health journeys. An important part of this company's culture and mission is to have a positive impact in the communities they serve - - and, given our mission at the Fenton Chamber - - we think that's pretty awesome!

Ribbon Cuttings are an important and exciting part of the Fenton Chamber's role of supporting businesses in the community. We advocate for members of the Fenton Chamber by encouraging patronizing Chamber member businesses and doing business locally in order to keep the region thriving!


Note: We understand that this product/industry is perceived differently by everyone and that's ok. The ribbon cutting will take place outdoors and there will be no obligation to go indoors if you choose not to do so. With that being said, this is a new member business of the Fenton Chamber and, as such, we hope you will join us to support them as we do with all businesses

6/18/2024In Your Neighborhood: Bob Evans Valley Park
Business Neighborhood: Valley Park / 141 @ I-44

Let's Get Together... In Your Neighborhood!  
Meeting members & supporting businesses... one neighborhood at a time!
The Fenton Chamber is committed to meeting members where they are. Through the "In Your Neighborhood" program, we make it EASIER for our members to connect with Fenton Chamber staff and fellow members, as well as meeting fellow business owners near them that they may not meet at other events. With each of these IYN events, we select/target a "neighborhood" location by choosing a meeting place for breakfast/lunch/after hours. All are welcome to each IYN event, but we do make an effort to personally invite members (event non-members) within close distance of that location to attend.

No event fee; attendees pay their own way

Join us for our monthly Women's Group gathering; this time, we're hosting a happy hour event at our office where attendees will enjoy light refreshments while learning how to make perfume with essential oils! Sallye Fagala with doTerra will guide attendees through making their own roll-on perfume, using a selection of scents from floral to citrus to musky, and finding the combination of oils that works for them. This will be so much fun and we hope you'll join us!

This is our monthly gathering of the Fenton Chamber Women's Group which serves as a platform for networking and leads-sharing, education and relationship building through various events and activities.
