How much does it cost?

How much does it cost? Our annual fee of $75.00 entitles each business to one membership. This includes a $10.00 fee for membership in the Ontario Chamber, which keeps us informed of business related issues and government legislation at the provincial level.

We offer an Early Bird Discount of $10.00 for Renewals paid during October, November and December, for your next year’s membership.  The fee for NEW members joining after 30 June is only $50.00 for the balance of the year.  Join during Oct., Nov. & Dec. for only $75 which includes the balance of this year, and next year's membership.

Since forming in 1998, the Ramara Chamber of Commerce has continued to establish itself as an important community partner.

As we look at the ongoing changes in our township, it is important that businesses have a voice on how growth is managed.

By becoming a member of the Ramara Chamber of Commerce, you will be joining with other businesses in the promotion of economic and community prosperity in Ramara Township and Eastern Lake Country.
