Exciting Membership Goal Set By Our New President
Bringing the Chamber to 1,000 Members Businesses

I Am Asking You For Your Commitment!

Sandy Halprin
Chamber President

I moved to DeLand almost 3 years ago, and not knowing anyone in the area, the DeLand Area Chamber of Commerce welcomed me and gave me a place I could call my business home. Now, I want to share this home with as many other businesses as possible by significantly adding to our membership. That is why I am calling for the Chamber to increase its membership to 1,000 business members to achieve this goal. With over 3,000 businesses having an occupational license or permit just in the DeLand area, this is very realistic, but we need your help!

The Chamber has many new plans and programs to better serve as one of your Partners in Business. We are working hard to provide you with an increasing number of business development & networking opportunities during the coming year. The Chamber is committed to providing endless opportunities for its members to advertise and promote their business here in the DeLand area and around the world.

John F. Kennedy said: "There are risks and costs to a program of action. But they are far less than the long-range risks and cost of comfortable inaction." I am committed to this call to action, so that the Chamber can remain strong and vital. The Chamber will not let you down as it introduces many new and exciting programs and business opportunities during the coming year.

Thank You,
Sandy Halprin
Chamber President

Welcome to the DeLand Area Chamber of Commerce and thank you to our members for supporting the Chamber and its mission. The DeLand Area Chamber is proud to serve seven distinct and unique communities. Within the communities of DeLand, Cassadaga, Lake Helen, DeLeon Springs, Barberville, Pierson and Seville, you will find hundreds of member businesses waiting to serve you. Our membership is vast and varied and our communities are rich with history, economic diversity and unrivaled lifestyles. Reference our website to locate virtually every type of business. If you need information about the area, contact our Visitors Center at (386) 734-4331 or e-mail us at office@delandchamber.org.

If you are new to the Chamber or want to learn more about the benefits of being a Chamber member, we have listed a few:

  1. Member to Member Discount Program - This program offers discounts to over 60 member businesses. This was the number one (1) benefit requested by our membership. Keep in mind, that through your dues, many or all of your employees may take advantage of the Member to Member Discount Program. This is a direct benefit you could be offering your employees.
  2. Chamber Web Site - Our web site continues to grow in popularity and receives over 70,000 accesses each month! As a Chamber member, you can be linked, if requested, from our online Members Directory at no charge. You can also take advantage of exclusive web page sponsor opportunities offered only to Chamber members.
  3. Monthly Networking & Business Opportunities - at our "Business After Hours" and other events to include “member expos” throughout the year.
  4. Chamber's Visitor Center - Our Visitors Center continues to be the place people go for information and assistance and serves approximately 11,000 people a year. Your membership affords you the opportunity to set up a display in the Center and display your business cards and brochures. This level of exposure is hard to come by.
    Collaborations with the City of DeLand, the County of Volusia, the West Volusia Tourism Advertising Authority and our neighboring Chambers have strengthened our ability to serve you and the community.
