✂️ We kicked off our February Business After Hours by celebrating an exciting milestone for Valley Trust Insurance Group with a ribbon cutting marking their move into a new office! ✂️

Following the celebration, we enjoyed a relaxing evening of networking and refreshments, along with the opportunity to tour the new space.

Unwinding after the workday in such a welcoming atmosphere was a great way to end our Thursday.

Courtney was pleased to be joined by Chamber Board Chair Paula Moore-McClure and Board member Bruce Blair at today’s Virginia Chamber Day at the Capitol.

They were glad to see Mary Mannix, President and CEO of Augusta Health and Virginia Chamber Board member.

The Virginia Chamber shared about Blueprint 2035, which our Chamber partnered on, and gave important legislative updates.

We were especially excited to hear from the Shenandoah Valley’s own Carrie Chenery, who is serving as the Commonwealth’s Secretary of Commerce and Trade.

Advocacy is a huge part of what your local Chamber does and benefits all of our members, from small to large!

Our Story

Since 1999, the Greater Augusta Regional Chamber has been serving the communities of Staunton, Waynesboro and Augusta County. We represent businesses of all type and size from small entrepreneurs to large industrial complexes. The Chamber is a non-governmental organization structured as a non-profit, 501(c) 6. Membership investments are at the core of our operations and go to support an annual program of work that includes advocacy, community, talent development, regional impact projects and all forms of business development and education. Our number one asset is access and our team works with area businesses by facilitating connections to people or solutions that will help them grow and remain profitable, by working with local government and area partners to support business growth, and by serving as a clearinghouse of information to create new opportunities.

We believe in the strength of our membership and welcome your participation, your ideas, and your energy.

It’s Your business. It’s Your Chamber. It’s OUR community!
