The Bobcaygeon & Area Chamber of Commerce can be viewed as your business partner.

Your membership supports local businesses and organizations, promotes tourism to the area, brings innovation and best business practices to our doorstep and seeks out cutting edge opportunities to expand and move forward.

Your membership is significant - it builds over time. The more actively you participate in the Chamber and take advantage of the benefits, the more you will see the inherent value. In many cases, membership pays for itself through the discounts and other benefits available.

  • Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

    Opening a new business, moving to a new location, or marking a milestone? We will bring the oversized scissors.

    A Chamber ribbon cutting puts board members, fellow business owners, and neighbours on your doorstep. We handle the invitations and take the photos. Afterward your opening goes up on bobcaygeon.org, out through our social channels and the newsletter.

    No charge for members. Tell us your date and who you would like there, and we will take it from here.

  • Meet & Greet

    A room full of local business owners, and no agenda beyond talking to each other.

    We host these a few times a year, each one at a different member business. You will meet the people you have been meaning to call, find out who is hiring, who has space, and who has already solved the thing you are stuck on.

    Members attend free!
