Upcoming Events in Our Communities:

Huntsville/Madison/Surrounding Communities:

Date:  August 1

Time:  11:30 am – 1:00 pm

Event:  2024 Ambassador & Emissary Luncheon

Location:  Chamber Auditorium, 225 Church St NW, Huntsville, AL  35801

Description:  The Ambassador Program consists of enthusiastic Chamber volunteers who seek to grow professionally and personally by building business relationships within the community. If you have a desire to become more active in the local business environment, raise awareness about your business or organization, network, and give back to your community, this program is for you!

The Emissary Program is designed to increase membership value and retention rates. Members who are offered the responsibility of being an Emissary (advocates for the Chamber to current members) have already shown a strong sense of commitment and dependability by being an outstanding Chamber member. They are then extended an invitation to become a part of this program.
 
Every year, our Ambassadors and Emissaries donate more than 9,000 hours to build strong Chamber member relationships and raise community awareness, and this Chamber is stronger because of them!

Fee:  $20 (includes lunch) – registration and payment required to attend
