The  TRF Chamber is pleased to announce that it will launch its brand new website in September, 2012. We thank you for your patience with our current site while we focus on the customization of the new site. We have been working hard and think that it will be a great success!

Our new site will truly be a community portal, with links and calendars that will benefit Thief River Falls and its businesses tremendously. With a completely new look, including a new Chamber logo, we look at it as a vital part of our commitment to the growth and future of Thief River Falls.

Along with the assistance of TRF Radio, the Chamber of Commerce will host a debate between the city’s mayoral candidates and also between the area’s legislative candidates. Slated for October, it will be held in the newly renovated home for the Chamber of Commerce, the Carnegie Library building. Exact dates will be announced at a later time.

We would like to welcome Great Lakes Aviation as our newest member to the Chamber of Commerce. Great Lakes began servicing the TRF Airport in May, and in September will concentrate solely on non-stop daily flights to and from the Minneapolis/St. Paul airport (MSP).

The Chamber will hold its annual Everybody’s Market in Floyd B. Olson (gazebo) Park in Thief River Falls on September 8th. The event is followed by the Great American Block Party that evening on LaBree Avenue.

It will feature crafts and wares from all over the area- please contact the Chamber at 218-681-3720 or contact@trfchamber.com if you would like to participate. In case of inclement weather, the event will be moved to the Huck Olson Memorial Civic Center.

The TRF Chamber is please to announce our lineup for the 2012 Great American Block Party. In its 10th anniversary year, the Back Behind the Barn Boys will be headlining the event, to be held downtown on LaBree Avenue. The band also played the Chamber’s first Block Party ten years ago, which was a very successful event. Their special guest will be Tami Lee and the Northern Lights. In case of inclement weather, the event will be moved to the Huck Olson Memorial Civic Center.
