Calendar of Chamber Meetings & Other Local Events
Chamber Meetings
The CLCC meets at 6:30 p.m. on the second Tuesday of each month, except for July and August when we break for the summer. Meetings are hosted by our member businesses. All community members and owners of businesses operating in the Coloma-Lotus area are welcome to attend.We have no separate Board of Directors meetings, so all non-committee business is handled in these meetings. Typically they last around two hours. Refreshments are provided by the hosting business so an RSVP is appreciated.
