The Kamiah Chamber of Commerce is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and supporting the businesses in Kamiah and the surrounding area. The Chamber is a volunteer group made up of businesses, individuals, organizations, and agencies whose common goal is to make Kamiah a great place to live, work and play.

The Chamber serves you... In 1936, a group of community-minded merchants began to offer a free barbeque dinner as a way of saying thank you to area residents for their patronage. The Kamiah Chamber has carried on the tradition of BBQ days for more than 70 years, organizing and sponsoring nearly every aspect of the Labor Day weekend event. Today, thousands of residents, former residents, and visitors take part in BBQ Days - and the event continues to grow each year.

In 2007, the Kamiah Chamber sponsored or co-sponsored many other community service projects, including:

• Purchased the “Beer Garden” property on Idaho Street (Watch for developments in the future.)
• Played a lead role in repairing the roof at the American Legion Hall, and we are continuing to lead the movement to ensure that the Legion Hall remains as a community center.
• Obtained a grant and implemented the “Wild Rivers” advertising campaign.
• Completed the restoration of the city’s murals.
• Held the 1st annual Casino Night & Poker Run (Look for these events in April & June next year).
• Obtained a grant to add artwork as a backdrop for the stage at Riverfront Park.
• Obtained a grant to complete the Informational Kiosk at Riverfront Park.
• Christmas Lighting Ceremony and Light Parade.
• Additionally, the Chamber building is open regularly and staffed with friendly volunteers to greet and direct visitors.

The Chamber relies on membership dues, donations, and fundraisers throughout the year in order to provide these services to our community. Please help us continue this work by becoming a member or renewing your membership. As a member, you’ll enjoy these benefits:
