Where you want to Belong
“The rapid growth of The Southwest Spotlight Newspaper is due in no small part to relationships forged at Bonita Springs Chamber functions and networking events. Our “Bonita Business Beat” and “Town Talk” sections often feature chamber members. The Spotlight’s many other in-depth articles often contain informative content brought to our attention through our chamber contacts. Support from chamber members and the entire Bonita Springs community has afforded us the opportunity to continue to grow and be a great resource for Bonita Springs. These are among the reasons why The Southwest Spotlight Newspaper belongs to the Bonita Springs Area Chamber of Commerce.”
Peter A. O’Flinn

“My dog training company Canine Command joined the Chamber in May and Chamber members have already referred me new clients! The Chamber’s numerous monthly networking and educational events have been very helpful. Chamber leadership goes the extra mile to get to know you and your company and suggest ways to grow your business. The members are friendly and also eager to help each other with their business. Many of them are now vendors for my company supplying T-shirts and other promotional items! In today’s competitive marketplace the Chamber gives our company a way to stand out among the competition!”
Joseph M. De Simone
President, Canine Command
