History
Reflecting on the Past to Look into the Future
1884 – The Chippewa Lumber and Boom Company is built, and they become the largest sawmill under one roof in the entire world.
Early 1900’s – Lumber industry dwindled and future business growth looked bleak. However, a group of industrious individuals took to recruit businesses to Chippewa Falls from Minneapolis and Chicago. This group was called the Progressive League.
1919 – The Progressive League’s name is changed to the Chippewa Falls Commercial Association
2015 – The Chamber moved to its new location at 1 N. Bridge Street
Today – The Chippewa Falls Area Chamber of Commerce continues to advocate for businesses in the Chippewa Falls area.
