Chamber Activities

Ribbon Cuttings

Whether they recognize new ownership, a grand opening or a major remodel and grand reopening, ribbon-cutting ceremonies are a special way to mark your business milestone. As a service to member businesses in Springville and Mapleton, the Springville-Mapleton Chamber of Commerce holds ribbon-cutting ceremonies to celebrate these events and let the public know about what services or products the businesses offer.

The chamber’s board of directors and its members are invited to attend as well as city officials, community members and the Miss Springville/Mapleton Royalty. These ribbon-cutting events create excitement about the new businesses, welcome them to the community, help them get community leaders through their doors and begin the word-of-mouth advertising that is so important.

Anyone starting a business in Springville or Mapleton is welcome to call the Springville-Mapleton Chamber of Commerce at 801-491-7830 to set up a time for a ribbon-cutting event.
