Carthage Chamber of Commerce

Why aren't there brats on the square this year? Why are you changing so many traditions?

At least on the days they are not open, leave a sticker and the gift in a bag for those who want to stamp their passport on the weekends, like other places do.

Nice people but not good at customer service. For the Maple Leaf Festival, I paid for a vendor booth SEVERAL months in advance to request a spot on a road that the parade would be on. Their application says we can request a spot if we pay early. I bet I was one of the first! I paid for 2 spaces too because I thought the festival was going to be great this year. Well, with no notice, the morning I showed up to set up, they moved me to a different spot than what it said on the map and I was stuck on a packed full road away from the parade between food vendors. Their long lines blocked my double spot most of the day and I didnt do very well at all. When I emailed the chamber to let them know I wasnt happy with what happened, a week went by so I sent another email and all I got was a pretty generic apology. No solutions offered for future events. I asked if I could request a spot for next year and not pay super early this time since this happened to me. Still waiting for a response. They may never respond! Sorry but I think they could do their jobs better for people who pay them for their services. As leaders in the community, when problems arise, you address the problems, offer solutions, and try for improvementnot just be like sorry, tough luck, and ignore people.
