Welcome to our "Community of Stars," starring you and our Monmouth and Independence community businesses and members. You are a reason to celebrate, and we are excited to have you join us as we award some of the bright stars in our community this year. As part of our galaxy, your participation as a community, business, and/or volunteer member is vital to the chamber's work. We seek to boldly go into our world, to seek out new tourism opportunities, support new and current businesses, provide important education, and promote our communities. 

The 59th Annual Community Awards and Silent Auction will be held on Thursday, April 18, 2024, at the Eola Hills Winery, 501 S Pacific Hwy, Rickreall, OR (across from the Polk County Fair Grounds). A constellation of yummy appetizers, beverages, and auction items will be available for your perusal and enjoyment. Plan to be star-struck as we announce our 2023 winners and watch them blaze across our stage to receive their awards. 

Your participation will guarantee a stellar evening and help us reach for the stars. Our goal of $20,000 will continue our work, increasing our galactic reach by promoting local businesses, education, networking, and community outreach. So be a supernova and join us at 6 p.m. for a luminary evening.
