The chamber of commerce serves the needs of local businesses and visitors to the area.

This a must stop if you are visiting Creston. The staff was very friendly and most helpful.

It relocated to this once Home Building Supply building about five years ago. Be sure and visit the outstanding mural on the west wall of the building. It depicts the history of the Creston Valley.

"History

The Creston Valley Chamber of Commerce has a long and productive history. Today’s organization began as the Creston Board of Trade and was first certified as such in 1935.

The name was changed to more accurately reflect its changing role in the community in 1971 and it became the Creston Chamber of Commerce.

The boundaries were of the area served were redrawn in 1983 and in that same year the constitution and bylaws were officially adopted. In 1990 it was renamed again to represent the area it serves to the Creston & District Chamber of Commerce. The name was then changed in 2009 to the present day name The Creston Valley Chamber of Commerce."
