2026 Legislative Welcome Bags - Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce

The Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce assembled and distributed over 100 Legislative Welcome Bags to our South Dakota Legislators for the 2026 Legislative Session. Members of the Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce donated items to welcome legislators to Pierre, share information about our community, and show appreciation for their service during session.
