Be an Informed Voter!
Spring General Election April 4
The Spring Election on April 4 includes a statewide ballot for Superintendent of Public Instruction, and local races in many communities for city council and school board positions. Click here to see what specific candidates are on your ballot.
The Chamber does not endorse candidates, but our Good Government Council provides candidate questionnaires to help members make informed choices. Many local races in Eau Claire and Altoona are uncontested this Spring. However, the Good Government Council still gave all candidates the opportunity to answer its questions so that citizens can learn what their priorities will be in their next term. Click on the links below to see questionnaires with candidate answers for the following local positions:
Eau Claire City Council President
Eau Claire Area School District Board of Education
Altoona City Council
Altoona School Board candidates were invited to answer the questionnaire, but did not respond.

It's time for a change! The last Business Connection was held on March 3. Beginning on April 7, a new quarterly event, A.M. Exchange will take its place.
What's different?
New time: The start time has been changed to 8 a.m. We thought 7:30 a.m. may have been a little too early for some of you!
New location: You may love the Chamber office but there are many great member locations! Each quarter, the event will be held at the sponsor location.
New registration: Registration will be required since there will be a maximum attendance (30 attendees for this event). The first five people who register (and attend) will receive a pass to attend Business After Hours. When you register online, it will indicate the other individuals that have registered.
Join us for this fun exchange of information! Hear more about Woods & Water Realty and meet other business professionals.
