Rocky Ford Chamber of Commerce Celebrates 80 Years of Supporting Local Businesses and Community

The Rocky Ford Chamber of Commerce is a 501c3 nonprofit organization. Established in 1945 as a nonprofit with the Colorado Secretary of State, we look forward to celebrating the accomplishment of 80 wonderful years, next year, supporting Rocky Ford and the businesses who are the heartbeat of the community.

The Rocky Ford Chamber of Commerce is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of 9 seats. The City of Rocky Ford has no governance over the Rocky Ford Chamber of Commerce. The relationship between the Chamber of Commerce and the City of Rocky Ford is clearly defined in an MOU that gives the Rocky Ford Chamber of Commerce the responsibility to operate the Gobin Building Complex, which is owned by the City of Rocky Ford. We value our working relationship with the City of Rocky Ford.

The Rocky Ford Chamber of Commerce knows there are many options when it comes to rental venues for your get togethers and formal events. The Board of Directors and Chamber Manager are working diligently to bring you an updated facility with all the amenities you have grown to love in the Baggage Room and Gobin Building plus new and exciting upgrades. If you are unable to book with us, we hope that you take advantage of one of the other venues within the city of Rocky Ford.

It is with the support of our members, generous donations and our rental spaces that the Rocky Ford Chamber of Commerce has been able to support Rocky Ford businesses and the community for almost 80 years. We thank you for your support and look forward to serving the Rocky Ford Community for another 80 years.

Chamber Board President,

Susan Bumstead
