Election season is here, and it’s time to think beyond just the Presidential vote. Informed participation at the state and local levels is equally crucial in shaping our local economy, quality of life, and ensuring that the needs and perspectives of our community are well-represented.

Fourth Annual Women's Luncheon: Empowering strong female leaders in our community

The Coeur d'Alene Regional Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to announce our Fourth Annual Women’s Luncheon on Nov. 1 from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., designed to empower, engage, and elevate female leaders in our community. Our keynote speaker, Liz Murray, will share her remarkable journey from homelessness to Harvard; a powerful and inspiring story of resilience, determination and achievement.

Supporting our public school district levies is good for business and community

The vitality of our public schools is directly tied to building a thriving community in Kootenai County and Coeur d’Alene. The quality of education is key to shaping engaged, invested citizens and preparing our young people for the modern job market. In Idaho, our levies are labeled “supplemental,” but there’s nothing supplemental about them. The state only provides funding for 75% of school operating budgets, meaning local communities must cover the remaining 25% for essential operations like staffing, programs and services.
