Membership Luncheon: Tourism Update with STB

Kick off the new year with connection, insight, and a look ahead at what’s shaping our local economy.

Join us for a timely Tourism Update with the Skagit Tourism Bureau's CEO, Kristen Keltz, exploring how tourism continues to support economic growth and community vitality in Skagit County. This update will highlight current travel trends, regional marketing efforts, and emerging opportunities tied to increased national and international attention on Washington State from major sporting and cultural events. Attendees will gain insight into what these trends mean for local businesses — from increased visitor traffic and seasonal demand to ways businesses can prepare, partner, and position themselves to benefit from expanded tourism activity in the year ahead.

In addition, Steph, Chamber CEO/President, will share an update on the Chamber's Strategic Plan, outlining priorities, progress, and how we’re continuing to support and strengthen our business community in the year ahead.

We’ll enjoy a delicious catered lunch from Avenue Catering, making this a perfect opportunity to network, learn, and engage with fellow members and community leaders.

Whether you’re looking to stay informed, grow your network, or support the Chamber’s work, this luncheon is a great way to start the year connected and inspired.
