Weekly Opportunities: August 2026, Week 1

It is luncheon week, and there is plenty happening across the Greater EMC Chamber community. From family health resources and a full-capacity luncheon to a ribbon cutting, Business Expo registration, and the Annual Proud2BeEMC Chamber Classic, this is a great time to get connected and plan ahead.

Free Well-Child Visits and Vaccines Through August 14

Thank you to our video sponsor, Lone Star Family Health Center, for supporting this week’s opportunities.

Families can take advantage of Lone Star Family Health Center’s ninth annual Don’t Miss the Best event, available now through August 14. Well-child visits and vaccines are free for children without insurance.

For children with insurance, preventative services typically come with no out-of-pocket expense. This is an important opportunity to help children get ready for the school year with the care and immunizations they need.

Welcome The Back Nine - New Caney

On Thursday, come out and help welcome The Back Nine - New Caney to the Chamber and business community.

Their ribbon cutting will take place at 11:30 a.m. at their new location in New Caney. Ribbon cuttings are a fantastic way to support local businesses, meet fellow Chamber members, and celebrate growth in our community.

The Business Expo is coming up on September 17, and booth registration is open now.
