The West Chambers County Chamber of Commerce kicks off each year honoring those who further the goals of the Chamber at the Annual Banquet. The highlight of the evening recognizes the Person of the Year - selected by the entire membership for their contributions to the community. Also recognized are Small Business and Corporate Business of the Year.

The Chamber hosts a Meet the Candidates forum each spring to give voters an opportunity to hear and ask questions of those running for public office.

The Eagle Open and Family Fandango, our spring family event and fundraiser, is held in April at the beautiful Eagle Pointe Golf Club. Sporting the theme Where Business and Pleasure Meet, this event is an excellent marketing and networking opportunity for our members. An evening of entertainment, dance, and auctions brings out the community for family-focused fun!

The Barbers Hill Fall Fest, held in October, promotes West Chambers County as a great place to live and work. The community-oriented day is designed to benefit drug awareness and education in Barbers Hill. It is held in conjunction with the Texans War on Drugs Campaign. Proceeds help fund the local D.A.R.E. Programs, Project Graduation, and Breakfast of Champions. In 1999, The West Chambers County Chamber perpetuated a four year scholarship with the Barbers Hill Homecoming and Scholarship Association which provides $1,200 each year to a graduating senior planning a career in law enforcement, counseling, or related field. Highlighting the festival is the War on Drugs Barbecue Cook-off, pitting local industry and business culinary talents against each other. Additional activities include a Drug Awareness poster contest, Pie Contest and Pie Auction, Fun Run, Splat Drugs Paintball, and a Children's Carnival sponsored by Barbers Hill Schools.

Chamber members eagerly anticipate and enjoy the annual Holiday Social hosted by a member each December. The event provides business leaders and their spouses an opportunity to relax and reflect on the year's successes.

Throughout the year, the Chamber hosts ribbon cuttings and participates in grand openings for new businesses or those becoming member of the Chamber. With the dramatic growth our community is experiencing, our Chamber is determined to remain Great and Growing!
