The Clatskanie Chamber of Commerce consists of community leaders in business, industry, government, and non-profits who regularly gather to promote the town of Clatskanie.

The Chamber's Board will continue to monitor COVID-19 and decide whether to continue in-person meetings or revert to Zoom meetings like what were required during the peak of the pandemic. Check back often for updates.
