On January 1, 2000, Starke County, Indiana experienced more then just a new millennium.  The Greater Knox Area Chamber of Commerce and the North Judson Chamber of Commerce joined together to create a countywide chamber, hence the Starke County Chamber was established.

Joining both groups of business people took some planning, but all were concerned with maintaining a positive business climate. Because both Chambers were willing to work together a much stronger Chamber was formed. The Chamber is dedicated to the continuous improvement of Starke County's business environment thereby supporting the overall economic development and the quality of life in our county.

The Chamber now represents all of Starke County including Knox, North Judson, San Pierre, Hamlet, Bass Lake, Koontz Lake and even Toto too!

Our office is in the beautiful revitalized Nickel Plate Depot located at 400 North Heaton, Knox, Indiana.

Throughout the year we have quarterly luncheons providing informative speakers. This gives our membership a chance to network together. We are also responsible for giving out the prestigious Henry F. Schricker Award. Every year since 1988 recognition has been bestowed upon a county resident, which exemplifies "service before self", a motto the late governor Schricker lived by. This gala event takes place at our annual Chamber membership dinner held in November.
