Autumnal greetings from the Powder River Chamber - 

Halloween is coming up fast and the Broadus VFW Post 1595 is hosting a spook-tacular event!  Trick-or-treating, dancing and costume contest this Saturday night starting at 8pm!  

Our final Chamber General Membership Meeting of 2021 is scheduled for 5:30pm on Wednesday, November 10th.  We desperately need local business and community investment in our Chamber board and we urge you to join us at the office of Gardner & Billing CPAs for this important meeting.  Items on the agenda include election of officers for the coming year as well as discussions/decisions on the budget and program of work for 2022.  Whether you’re interested in a single project or willing to commit to joining our board, we are grateful for any contributions that further our commitment in building a better Broadus.  

Show your support of local businesses and help celebrate our community this holiday season at the annual Broadus Christmas Stroll! Due to high school sports conflicts, please note that the stroll has been scheduled for THURSDAY, December 2nd this year.  The theme is “Christmas on Gingerbread Lane” and the Christmas Stroll Committee has some sweet treats in store!  Chamber events will include an uproarious Ugly Sweater Pageant at 6pm - pull those pullovers out of mothballs, get granny to gussy it up and strut your stuff for a cash prize at the ugliest pageant on the block!  The 2nd Annual Community Tree Lighting will take place after the pageant in the Powder River Petals courtyard at 6:30pm. Then once you’ve seen Santa, shopped small and gorged on gingerbread goodies, join us for some NFR Calcutta rodeo action.  It’s going to be a fun, festive evening in Broadus!
