Great Bend Retail Meeting

IMPORTANT INVITE FOR GREAT BEND RETAIL BUSINESSES

Due to scheduling conflicts, we have rescheduled our upcoming Retail Meeting to Friday, October 31 at 8:00 AM at the Great Bend Event Center.

Over the past several months, our community has seen several staff transitions across key organizations—including the Chamber, City, Convention & Visitors Bureau, and Great Bend Alive, and Economic Development. We recognize that these changes may have raised questions about the future of the Retail Roundtable and how we can best continue to support our vibrant retail community.

Please know that our leadership teams are actively collaborating to strengthen our shared commitment to you. Whether it’s retail events, marketing, workforce development, business advocacy, or community engagement, we are united in our goal to elevate and empower Great Bend’s retail sector.

This meeting will be an opportunity to:

• Share updates on upcoming holiday retail promotion options and events like Home for the Holidays Festival and Parade

• Discuss what’s on the horizon for Great Bend’s retail community

• Explore ideas for future programming and collaboration

• Hear directly from you—your needs, your vision, your feedback

☕ Coffee and donuts will be served. Please RSVP so we can plan accordingly.

👉 Note: You do not need to be a Chamber member to participate. All local retailers are encouraged and welcome to attend.

Your voice is essential as we shape the next chapter of retail in Great Bend. Whether you’ve participated in past roundtables or are new to the conversation, we hope you’ll join us.

With appreciation,
Great Bend Chamber of Commerce
Great Bend Convention & Visitors Bureau
Great Bend Alive / Great Bend Economic Development
City of Great Bend
