Staff
The Smithville Area Chamber of Commerce has small staff of 1.5 people but a large responsibility. There is a 15-member volunteer Board of Directors. Volunteers called Community Hosts man the office, Visitors Center and the Railroad Museum to greet our guests and support the Chamber work. Other volunteers round out the chamber workforce.
Hours:
The office hours are Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. We are working hard for our members and may be at a meeting or event, so if the office is closed, please feel free to leave a message on the board outside the door or leave a message at 512-237-2313.
What We Do:
Promote Smithville area businesses and the City of Smithville to local residents and to attract tourism, facilitate and provide community services with recreational events (see EVENTS) and committee functions, provide information to visitors and newcomers, and promote benefits of Smithville to potential residents and businesses, including the film industry. Yes, we do keep busy, and we love it.
