CREATING A STRONG LOCAL ECONOMY
The Delano Chamber of Commerce promotes the local economy by encouraging Delano Chamber of Commerce members and Kern County residents to Stay, Shop, Play, locally. The Chamber of Commerce Information Center and the Web site have detailed information about local tourism, businesses and information about our community.

PROMOTING THE COMMUNITY
The Delano Chamber of Commerce promotes the local community in a variety of ways. We provide lists of community events and local nonprofits as well as visitor, relocation and wedding information about Kern County.
This information is available in Kern County packages and the Welcome to Kern County Gift Bags.

PROVIDING NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES
The Delano Chamber of Commerce promotes networking by sponsoring monthly dinner meetings and the After Business Hours Mixers at local businesses. The mixers are an excellent opportunity to meet other Chamber members and learn about their businesses.

REPRESENTING BUSINESS TO GOVERNMENT
The Delano Chamber of Commerce represents business concerns to local, regional, state and federal entities. While you keep your business running, the Chamber watches your back on issues like Workers’ Comp, Healthcare, and job killer anti-business bills. Action Alerts and other legislative information are available on the Chamber’s Web site and are sent to members via e-mail throughout the year.

REFERRALS
The Delano Chamber of Commerce receives thousands of calls annually from people all over the country asking all types of questions. Referrals go to members of the Delano Chamber of Commerce. The Delano Chamber of Commerce also furnishes relocation, visitor, wedding, business, kid and senior packages, at a cost, and winery and lodging lists to those who are interested.
Members can take advantage of these opportunities by supplying us with brochures, rack cards or business cards for insertion in these packages.

BUSINESS DIRECTORY LISTING
Included in your membership investment is an alphabetical and categorical listing for your business/organization in the Delano Chamber of Commerce Business Directory.
This guide goes out annually to the entire memberships, who are asked to use this resource prior to picking up the “Yellow Pages.” Thousands of these directories are sent out in relocation and business packets as well.

WEB SITE LISTING
Your business is listed free of charge on the Delano Chamber’s website in the Business Directory. There are 2 ways a Chamber member can be located: 1) alphabetically, 2) searching for a business by category.

INFORMATION RESOURCES

You can access demographics, visitor, community, nonprofits, clubs/organizations, community events, legislative, employment and educational information from the Web site, newsletter and staff resources.
