Chamber Membership
Support the work of the Chamber with your Annual Membership.
Thank you for your interest in the Leavenworth Chamber of Commerce. Our mission is to promote commerce, tourism, the Bavarian theme, economic development, diversification, and cooperation among the business community,
The Chamber is funded through membership dues, sponsorship & advertising sales, and fundraising events. As the Destination Management Organization (DMO) for Leavenworth, the Chamber also receives funding via a percentage of the hotel lodging tax collection from the City and the County. This funding allows the Chamber to operate and staff a year-round visitor center, plan and execute events, operate Ambassador programs, schedule entertainment at the gazebo during the summer months, and provide assistance with tourism infrastructure.
The Chamber of Commerce is a 501 (c)6 non-profit Business Association and is governed by a fourteen member Board of Directors who meet twice a month on the first and third Thursdays.
We look forward to welcoming you to the chamber and to working with you and your business!
