100th Annual Devils Lake Chamber
Celebration of Business & Community
A Vintage Hollywood Celebration
October 9, 2026 | The Shores
For 100 years, the Devils Lake Chamber of Commerce has been part of the heartbeat of this community — supporting local businesses, encouraging growth, welcoming visitors, and helping shape the future of the Devils Lake region. Since 1926, the Chamber has worked alongside business owners, community leaders, and residents through times of growth, challenge, and change, always focused on strengthening our local economy and improving quality of life. That work also connects to something larger — the continued success and growth of North Dakota as a whole. Strong local communities are the foundation of a strong state, and for a century, the Devils Lake Chamber has proudly contributed to statewide efforts in economic development, workforce growth, tourism, and business advocacy. Celebrating this 100-year milestone is not only a reflection of our history, but also of the partnerships and shared vision that continue to move North Dakota forward.
This event will serve as both the Chamber’s Annual Meeting and the official Centennial Celebration, with proceeds from the auction supporting the newly formed Devils Lake Chamber Foundation.
