Tooele County will benefit greatly by the “Come Together” campaign promoted by the Chamber. It will be a big advantage to the County residents as they become educated as to where their tax dollars go and how it is used. Educating the consumer along with local businesses providing great customer service will enable Tooele County to continue to provide for its citizens. If you spend your money here, it stays here. – Tooele County Commissioners

“COME TOGETHER” is a team effort between local businesses and community leaders to bring a new awareness of “Community Ownership” to all Tooele County residents. It takes a united effort to show that strong businesses lead to healthier communities, including better educational opportunities.

Look for this logo when you shop for the best in customer service and competitive pricing. Own your community! Live in it. Shop in it. Thrive in it. Let’s all “Come Together” in Tooele County and make sure our dollars are spent in our own backyard!

I express my appreciation to the Chamber of Commerce for initiating this very important campaign. – Tooele City Mayor Patirck Dunlavey
