COVID-19 & Chamber Events



The Rochester Regional Chamber of Commerce is working with State Officials, the CDC, and our Local Government to stay up to date and share developments on the COVID-19 virus.

As of March 13, under the recommendations of several agencies including the CDC, Oakland County, and in the interest of the community in general, all chamber events through April 10 are cancelled or postponed. Please stay tuned to Chamber communications for updates. The continuation of Chamber events will be reevaluated the first week of April, 2020. If the situation warrants the office will close and our staff will work remotely from home. If you need assistance from the chamber, we are happy to service you via phone or email.
 
The Rochester Regional Chamber of Commerce encourages everyone to use proper hygiene practices. With respect to the current situation, please avoid coming into the office. We are happy to assist you via phone or email. Please note the following measures are encouraged:
  • Refrain from shaking hands to prevent spread of germs. Alternative greetings such as hand waving is acceptable.
  • Registration for Chamber events is now mandatory to ensure the health and safety of attendees.
  • When feeling sick, avoid contact with others. Also avoid exposure to people who are sick.
