About the Chamber

Monthly Board Meetings:

Working Together...For Each Other

The Van Alstyne Chamber of Commerce is committed to promoting commerce, professional and personal growth.


The Chamber is your company’s number one resource for business advocacy, connectivity and education.


You do not need to be located inside the Van Alstyne city limits to be a member of our vibrant and growing chamber. We work with surrounding communities to grow the economic region between McKinney and Sherman.


We work closely with the various City of Van Alstyne departments and the Van Alstyne Community Development Corporation to produce several annual events that help businesses connect with the community on a one-to-one level. Fall-der-All Festival, Music in the Park, Celebrate Freedom, Trick-or-Treat Downtown, Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting are just a few of the events that bring residents together.


Our Team

The Van Alstyne Chamber of Commerce Team is comprised of dedicated individuals that strive to make
the Chamber - and the community of Van Alstyne - a great place to live and do business.
