Chippewa Valley Rally
February 22, 2023
Taking the Chippewa Valley's Voice to Madison.
This annual event is organized by the Chippewa Valley Chamber Alliance, representing the Chippewa Falls, Menomonie and Eau Claire Chambers of Commerce. It's a unique opportunity to bring the collective voice of Chippewa Valley business and community leaders like you to Madison all at one time. With workforce issues at the top of the agenda, we'll be there to emphasize the impact on our region of initiatives being undertaken or considered by state government, including education, infrastructure, housing supply & affordability, and more.

If you have an advocacy that you would like to share with the Chamber team or have specific questions regarding Chippewa Valley Rally, reach out to Ashley DeMuth at [email protected].
You'll be part of a team of several dozen area business and community leaders traveling to Madison for small group meetings at legislative offices, a luncheon, informal discussions with lawmakers and staff, and networking with others from the area who are interested in state government policy.
The day's agenda is still being finalized and will be available soon. You'll spend a full day in Madison from late morning through early evening, scheduled to allow you to leave in the morning and be home by late evening. Events will take place at the State Capitol and the Best Western Premier Park Hotel. Registration fees include a keynote luncheon (Governor Evers invited) and a closing reception. There will be online pre-event briefings the week before to acquaint you with the 2023 Rally Issues and the political climate in Madison.
You may travel on your own, or take advantage of optional same-day charter coach transportation which will be available from Eau Claire, boarding 6:00-6:15 a.m. and returning by 9:30 p.m. The cost to ride the bus is $25.
If you wish to combine your trip with other business, we've arranged for discounted rates at the Best Western Premier Park Hotel: $139/night plus tax for a king or 2 queens on the night before and after the Rally.
