Many Butler County residents hear the name Butler County Chamber of Commerce but don't fully understand what the organization is all about. Most people probably know that it has something to do with businesses, but beyond that their knowledge about the actual workings of the organization is not extensive.

While The Edge, the newsletter of the chamber, is not a publication that reaches the average home, the January publication contains a message that is instructive regarding the organization's mission, goals and, just as important, how far the chamber has come over the past half-decade or so.
