The Springtown Area Chamber of Commerce is located on the historic down town square in Springtown, Texas.  Our office is housed in one of the oldest buildings in town.  The building was erected in 1901 by Sam Roberson who is listed in the Guiness Book of World Records for having been in business for 63 years, "never owing a nickel nor having a nickel owed him."  After Roberson died, the building remained in the family until 1992 when the then current owner, Margaret Ritchey, sold the building to the Chamber of Commerce.      

Our Chamber was originally incorporated in 1966, but later disbanded.  The chamber was reformed in 1979 and has been showing steady growth ever since.  Over the past several years, the Chamber has concentrated on restoring the building, in September, 2002 the Chamber with the help of many volunteers completely renovated the outside front of the building.  Then in 2004 the second phase of the remodel took place which added a large conference area, kitchen and new bathroom to the Chamber Office. Most recently in 2006 the Chamber was fortunate enough to have several generous Chamber Members donate the final phase of the remodel project on the inside of the building to it's present day decor.     

For 4-5 years, the Chamber provided space for the Legends Museum.  With future growth in mind, the Legends Museum moved to their new location in February 2001.  They are now housed in an historic home on North Main Street which has been renovated.  Our chamber provides office space for the Good NEWS Living At Home/Block Nurse Program--a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that is dedicated to helping our senior citizens live independently rather than be moved to a nursing home.    

Our Chamber is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of 20 directors, an ex-officio, and an Executive Director who handles the day-to-day operations.  The chamber has worked very hard to establish an "esprit de corps" with all entities within the city to work together for the best interests of our community.  Our Board of Directors is represented by a cross-section of community members; therefore, we feel that input from all areas of the community is achieved.
