Member spotlight: Copper Creek Manufacturing
Copper Creek Manufacturing has grown to 210 employees producing precision metal components for the region's equipment and aerospace suppliers — and is adding a third shift this winter to keep up with demand.
The Chamber's Legislative Breakfast is the one morning a year when every mayor, state rep and business owner in the region is in the same room. That access is worth the membership by itself.

What members say
Leadership Copper Creek took three of our floor supervisors and turned them into people who can run a shift, read a P&L and speak up in a room full of executives.
We joined for the directory listing. We stayed because the advocacy team fought for a permitting fix that saved our expansion six months.
