Who We Are And What We Can Do For Your Business?

The Dalles Area Chamber of Commerce is an organization that gets things done – things that you and your company can’t do alone. Chamber membership is an investment in your company’s future and the vitality of the community.


Our diverse membership represents the entire community with members from business and industry, civic and non-profit organizations, social service agencies, education, government, home-based businesses and individuals. Nearly 500 members representing 2,000 individuals believe that Chamber membership is an important component to business growth, job development, and a healthy economy.


The Chamber and its activities are managed by the President/CEO and a professional staff under the leadership of a 17 member Board of Directors, who serve on a voluntary basis and are elected by the Membership. Through countless volunteer hours, members accomplish much of the work of the Chamber by serving on committees and task forces.
