Today, we held our second Bridge the Gap Business Roundtable at the Carlisle Building! 🤝 We extend our sincere gratitude to all the business owners, City officials, Ohio Department of Transportation, and our valued partners for their active participation.

During the roundtable, we provided crucial updates on the Chamber's developments, construction progress, and openly discussed concerns from our dedicated business community. Together, we continued to brainstorm innovative solutions to navigate current challenges.

We understand this period has been trying, but by working together, we can build a stronger future for Ross County's businesses.

Stay tuned to our newsletter for details on our next meeting in July! Let's continue to and invest in our community.
