Do You Believe in Local Business

Through the Chamber of Commerce we encourage the consumer to be aware that we are "big enough to serve and small enough to care." Promotion of Stony Plain & District as the place to live, work and shop produces expansion in size and increased population and awareness and therefore more buying power.
