In celebration of Chamber of Commerce Week in Illinois, the Elmhurst Chamber of Commerce and Industry is sponsoring a month of networking and fundraising events, and offer recruitment incentives for new and reactivating members.
Along with more than fellow 20 Illinois chamber of commerce executives (and members of their staff), I participated in the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE) Annual Convention at the JW Marriott in downtown Indianapolis from July 26-29—our first in-person gathering since 2019 in Long Beach in southern California prior to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic.
For more than two decades, ECCI has participated as an active and integral member of the West Suburban Chamber of Commerce Executives (WSCCE) peer group serving DuPage County and several neighboring counties.
In cooperation with the Elmhurst American Legion THB Post 187, City of Elmhurst and Elmhurst Park District, our Chamber is organizing an in-person 104th Annual Elmhurst Memorial Day Parade and Post-Parade Military Ceremony on Monday, May 30, with Vietnam War veteran and retired U.S. Army Lt. Robert “Bob” Fonzino serving as the Grand Marshal.
The City of Elmhurst, Elmhurst Community Unit School District 205, Elmhurst Park District, Elmhurst Public Library and Elmhurst University have joined in organizing an event on Wednesday, April 6, to support the people of Ukraine. Various local organizations will be participating and all are welcome to attend.
