The Chamber's Purpose
The purpose of the Clio Area Chamber of Commerce is to advance the commercial welfare of our members. To accomplish that important purpose, we actively represent businesses across northern Genesee County. Through our efforts we try our best to stimulate business growth and to actively promote area businesses and our community in general.

Website Purpose
This website is designed to provide you with an overview of our fine community. Our goal is for you to come to the Clio area and have fun! If that happens, we know you will be coming back again and nothing could please us more! We look forward to seeing you again.

Many Opportunities
The Clio Chamber of Commerce provides members with many unique networking scenarios. The 2006 Chamber calendar is loaded with opportunities to meet with fellow Chamber members, see old friends and make new friends in the process. There will also be opportunities throughout the year to gain business insights and to learn from other business people how to be as successful as possible. Many Chamber members actually meet new clients at Chamber meetings, which helps them to experience growth and to continue to expand their impact in the community.

Advocating Members
The Clio Area Chamber of Commerce is constantly working on the local level as an advocate for its members. Members of our Board of Directors regularly attend Clio City Council meetings as well as Thetford and Vienna Township Commission meetings to ensure that the business community has a voice.

The Clio Area
The Clio area is alive with activity! The Chamber has made the commitment to have the Clio area become a Walkable Community. The community enjoys a beautiful park with a recreational pathway that runs alongside a peaceful creek that is shaded by wonderful old trees--each with a story to tell.

The Clio area includes many other recreational opportunities designed to address a broad variety of interests. People from around the area come to the Clio area to bowl, play tennis, bicycle, jog and just plain enjoy fresh air and warm hospitality.

Education
The Clio area provides our youth with a world class educational system. The Clio Area School District is one of the few districts in the area with North Central Accreditation at all grade levels and in all schools. Clio graduates are currently attending major universities across the United States and are highly regarded for their work ethic and contribution in the world of industry and commerce. Graduates are encouraged to further their education by a supportive community, which provides an array of scholarships and other incentives for young people to strive to achieve their individual potential. The Clio area believes in the values of a solid comprehensive education!
