Join the Chamber

Why Join the Chamber of Commerce?

Get Connected

The Chamber represents business in Darke County and hosts numerous events every year. We hold small, focused committee meetings and annual signature events such as Groundhog Day Luncheon - Economic Forecast, Chamber Ag Day, Legislative Luncheon, Golf Outing, and the Chamber Annual Meeting. All of these events provide a unique opportunity to network with some of the  area’s most successful business owners and executives.

Expand your circle of contacts even further by  getting involved with committees such as the Agriculture Committee, Chamber Ambassadors, 
or the Legislative Committee. Business  educational opportunities exist in the Darke County Human Resources Council and Safety Council

Boost your brand presence by taking advantage of sponsorship and advertising opportunities at Chamber events or in our regular publications.

Get Your Voice Heard

As a winner of the Ohio Chamber’s Best Advocacy Campaign Award, the Darke County Chamber is your voice for legislative issues. The Legislative Committee works diligently to promote the local, state, and federal legislative interests and champions a business-friendly climate. The Chamber’s involvement in statewide legislative issues has elevated this committee’s presence not only in Darke County, but in Columbus where our opinions are heard. 

Get Your Customers’ Attention

The Chamber’s online presence through our website and social media generates referrals for its members and is one of the leading business resources in the county. 

In addition, we publish an annual Membership Directory and Resource Guide. Last year copies of the Membership Directory and Resource Guide were distributed throughout Darke County and beyond, not only to Chamber members, but to new business prospects, new residents, business employees and visitors to our community.

This membership level is designed to help you develop your network and get connected with other businesses and the community. This entry level membership is for small businesses.
