Network Groups

Referral groups meet on a regular weekly basis on different days and times. Groups of businesses refer new business to each other, and there is one business category per network group.

To join a group, you must be a member in good standing with the Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce. There is an annual fee of $50 per business. There are some groups that may have additional charges or different rates. You can contact the group Chair for information and to determine what business categories are open for membership.

Visitors are welcome to attend network meetings so feel free to contact the chairperson directly (see below), or call the Chamber: 815.459.1300.

The Young Professionals focus is on the networking aspect of business building and less on the referral end of it. There are no restrictions on business categories and visitors are always welcome. You must be a member of the Crystal Lake Chamber to join the YP's, however any events that they may run are often open to the community. Feel free to contact the chairs for more information.
