Elgin Area Chamber Galleries

	It is our desire to preserve the history of the Elgin Area Chamber and the business community through many photographic collections. We encourage you to take your camera with you to our many events and send us your photos for possible use on this web site. We would also like to receive any historical photos that you may have of the chamber or business in the Elgin area. Photos can be sent to tgajewski@elginchamber.com. During the course of this Centennial Year, we will be adding additional albums to this gallery, so check back frequently to see the history of EAC and the Elgin area business community unfold in pictures.
