CHAMBER CHAMPIONS

Mount Vernon, Missouri is a unique community. It possesses, within its city boundaries, everything that is "small-town" America: from public gatherings on the lawn of the historic courthouse to friends and family outings at more than a half-dozen parks found throughout the town. The people of Mt. Vernon have always rallied around the concept of "growing together." At the same time they honor tradition, they embrace the future. Mt. Vernon has a great potential for growth. Located on one of America's major east-west corridors, Mt. Vernon continues to draw interest from industrial and commercial prospects throughout the region and abroad. In addition, community leaders work hard to keep the town's traditions intact. Welcome to Mt. Vernon!

Vision 2045 for Mt. Vernon

In the spring of 2017, Drury University Architecture Students in conjunction with University of Missouri Extension, evaluated our community and helped us envision a path for future growth in Mt. Vernon. Their end product is a 200 page book of ideas for community enhancement though the year 2045, available for your review at the Chamber. While their work is done, ours is just beginning as we tackle projects big and small, now and over the next 25 years. Contact the Chamber if you want to be a part of how we grow for the future. This may just one of the most important groups you can be involved with to help our community thrive.

The Chamber is always looking for volunteers. If you would like to be involved options include office, computer, photography, committee and event volunteers. Please contact the Chamber and we will plug you in.
