Weston Chamber of Commerce.
Membership Builds Community
The Weston Chamber of Commerce was formed as the Weston Development Company in 1982, with leadership from Jeff Elsea, Ted Wilson, Gary Norris, Don Spratt and James Swaney. Known as the WDC for 22 years, it was converted to a Chamber in 2005 to incorporate the support and wisdom of the Missouri Chamber of Commerce, United States Chamber of Commerce and affiliated groups.
The purpose of the organization has always been the economic development of the City of Weston, Missouri and its environs by promoting and assisting the growth and development of business concerns. This still means working to improve the City of Weston, making it not only more attractive for business, but a better place for all of us to visit and stay for a day, a weekend or a lifetime. And that means helping small and large businesses alike, creating and disseminating information on our assets, encouraging incentives for quality commercial and residential development, and creating partnerships where the whole becomes greater than the parts through the cooperation of government agencies, organizations, businesses, and individuals.
Membership & Services: To further the goals and programs for the greater good of Weston, Missouri, the Chamber seeks the support of businesses and individuals. Sponsoring businesses and organizations support the Chamber, including the Weston Visitor Center and the Weston Marketing Program through an annual $1,000 corporate membership, a $125 business membership, $75 NFP membership, or $35 individual membership.
