A History of the Chamber
At that meeting, A.H Meinershagen was elected president as well as additional board members. A committee was organized to draft a constitution and by-laws. The group decided to meeting regularly at the hotel. Five committees were formed: Agriculture, Civic, Commercial, Industrial & Transportation.
The Higginsville Chamber of Commerce has proven itself as a viable organization. Imagine…people, even then, were concerned about our community and working hard to improve it!
