Pickle in the Park
Thursday, July 23, 2026 — A big thank you to our friends at Community Park District for hosting our Chamber After Hours at the beautiful and newly re-opened Yena Park! It was a fun evening and a great location for our members to not only mingle, but let loose and have a little fun on the court. If you haven't checked out the new park yet, stop on by! 🌳

Chamber businesses and organizations that did not have a brick and mortar location could also participate virtually.
