There’s always something new and exciting happening in the Eagle River Valley. And this means the Eagle Valley Chamber of Commerce has been at it again. Its mission is to support local business and promote a strong economy all along the Eagle River, from the top of Tennessee Pass to the mouth of Glenwood Canyon. The Chamber and its more than 470 members make the valley an outstanding place to live and run a business, and in general, a fun place to be.
Founded back in 1933, the Eagle Valley Chamber of Commerce has long promoted the area’s economic vitality and a quality community. To that end, the Chamber supports annual events, such as Gypsum Daze and Eagle’s Flight Days, which provide tons of fun for locals and encourage visitors to return to the Eagle River Valley year after year.
In addition to supporting community celebrations, the Chamber sponsors events of its own. For example, its highly anticipated annual Citizen of the Year Extravaganza honors someone from the Eagle River Valley for engaging in humanitarian endeavors.
Among the Chamber’s latest endeavors is the support of the brand new Eagle River Event Center. Here, the Chamber holds its annual Healthy Lifestyles and Healing Arts Festival every September when the aspens are most colorful. Other annual events at the top-notch center include the Rocky Mountain Horse Expo and the Rocky Mountain Mule Days Auction and Outfitters Expo in early June.
The 45,000-square-foot Eagle River Event Center is located at the Eagle County Fairgrounds, home to the Eagle County Fair & Rodeo. From the last week in July through the first week of August, this beloved event draws visitors from all over Colorado and beyond.
