Happy May, Toledo! We could not be more excited to shepherd in sunnier days, warmer weather and the exciting spring and summer events northwest Ohio is known for. Before we get into the upcoming events that you can’t miss in the next few months, let us first celebrate and recognize our newest members who joined the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce member community in April 2022. When you stop by these businesses or meet them out at one of our networking events, don’t forget to congratulate them and offer them a warm welcome to our community.

April has come, and spring alongside it! As the Toledo Region continues to defrost, we also prepare for some of our favorite events of the year, not just here at the Toledo Chamber but throughout the region. Whether you're a baseball fan ready for the Toledo Mud Hens' opening day, gearing up for our Annual Meeting presented by Fifth Third Bank in just a month or preparing to meet our legislators during our Capitol Conversations in Columbus event after that, we look forward to seeing you around our region and state. Before we discuss what we have planned for the coming weeks, however, let's take a look back at our newest members who joined the Chamber in March 2022!

Happy March, Toledo! As spring approaches, we look forward to seeing the sun more and the weather to begin to get warmer, which means gathering and meeting outside once again! However, as we always do to begin the month, we are also excited to look back on our great new members who joined the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce community in February. Please join us in welcoming these new members to our community, and next time you find yourself nearby one of these excellent Toledo Region businesses, we invite you to step inside and introduce yourself. Enjoy!

February brings a lot with it: Black History Month, when here at the Toledo Chamber we celebrate our region’s many Black-owned and -led businesses; Groundhog Day, when we get our first hopes of a warm and sunny spring; and new and exciting events hosted by us and our members. February is certainly a month to celebrate, but before we dive in to the upcoming events for February and beyond, let’s first welcome our newest members who joined the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce in January 2022.

Happy New Year, northwest Ohio! As difficult as it is to believe that we've begun a new year, we're thrilled to take on a new month with you, our members. As we delve further into the winter months, we have an exciting lineup of events for the start of 2022 to get you prepared for a modern economy and workforce. But before we talk about what we're looking forward to in the coming weeks and months, we should first reflect on our new members who joined the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce business community in December 2021. Thank you for supporting the Chamber and, by extension, the economy and business climate of northwest Ohio!

There are plenty of moments we’re already looking fondly back on from October – and Halloween is just the start. Between helping to celebrate ribbon cuttings for four area businesses, Dana’s Advanced Manufacturing Training Center, Northwestern Mutual, Crunch Fitness and Next Day Access of Northwest Ohio, and putting on fabulous in-person events, October was a month to remember. In addition to our members who held ribbon cuttings, we’d of course like to celebrate our new members who joined us in October 2021 as well.

With October comes cooler temperatures, pumpkin-flavored treats at all of our favorite shops in northwest Ohio and events that celebrate the spookiest month. But before we get into celebrating Halloween and all that comes with the start of fall, we're taking a look back on the newest Toledo Chamber members who joined in September 2021. Please join us in welcoming these businesses to the Toledo Chamber community, and next time you visit one of these businesses, don't forget to wish them your congratulations!

It's always exciting to welcome a new member to the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce community, and it's doubly exciting to get to celebrate that member's ribbon cutting! We were lucky enough to get to do both for new Chamber member YogaSix, who joined us in the beginning of 2021 and whose ribbon cutting we took part in on June 26. In this New Member Spotlight, learn a little more about YogaSix and what they do.

August is now behind us, and though our warm temperatures and beautiful sunny skies don't show it, fall is nearing in the Toledo Region. The Toledo Chamber has plenty to look back on and celebrate during the start of September, and we've got even more to look forward to as the year continues on. But before we get into the exciting and important events on the schedule this month, let's highlight and celebrate our newest members who joined in August 2021.

​It’s August here in the Toledo Region, and we could not be happier to welcome in the blue skies, hot weather and incredible upcoming events. Whether you’re a northwest Ohio resident or a visitor, this month has an incredible lineup of summertime events including Toledo Jeep Fest and the 2021 Solheim Cup – and those are just some of our partners’ events! But before we discuss what’s to come in August, let’s take a moment to celebrate our newest Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce members who joined in July 2021. Next time you’re around one of these fabulous businesses, don’t forget to give them your congratulations and welcome them to the Chamber community.
