Our community partnerships are the foundation for collaboration that we cultivate throughout the year. The relationships formed between ourselves, members, consumers, sponsors, community organizations, and government create opportunities where the Chamber can highlight the local community and regional businesses year-round. We continued with events such as Midnight Madness alongside the Downtown Collective, and reinvigorated Chili Cook-Off along with helping promote others such as Ribfest, JazzFest and Rise Up. In times of review and reflection, we focused on how we could strengthen the relationships in the future. Additionally, the Chamber is helping support the 2026 Special Olympics Summer Games which will be hosted in Medicine Hat. With various opportunities for collaboration through events, collectives, and partnerships, we aim to create supportive and encouraging connections that will allow for more opportunities to emerge in the future.
