Ribbon Cutting Information

Ribbon Cuttings are typically scheduled on Thursday mornings at 10:00 AM, immediately following a Chamber Coffee, although special arrangements can be made to accommodate other dates and times. The Chamber Ambassadors will attend, and we’ll bring the ribbon, scissors, and camera. You’ll have a few minutes to speak to the group before we take a photo. The event typically lasts about 20 minutes.

Promotion & Photos:
-The Chamber will take photos, post them to our Facebook page (tagging your business), and email them to you for your own use.
-The photo will also be published in the Outlook Business Journal (mailed to over 1,100 Chamber members).
-We will submit your photo to the Great Bend Tribune, Great Bend Post, and other area media outlets.
-Some businesses choose to create a Facebook event and add the Chamber as a co-host to help spread the word.
