Text Box: The Chamber Welcome! The Goodland Area Chamber of Commerce is an organization that promotes the business community within Goodland, Kansas. We are member-based and therefore support and sponsor activities that feature those members. This site does not represent the City of Goodland, however, our member, the Sherman County Convention & Visitors Bureau has information on the Goodland area. If you are looking for a website specifically serving the Goodland area, we recommend you review their website. You will find their website link on the History & Information page. We represent some of the finest businesses in the Goodland Area! Each of our members are listed on the following pages with short descriptive paragraphs on each of their businesses. When available, you may visit their individual websites through a direct link, usually by clicking on their logo or picture. If a member business does not have a website, we boldly list their phone number so you are able to contact them. If there is no phone number listed, please use the link to their website and get their contact information there. We offer support to our business community by being members ourselves of the US Chamber of Commerce. This organization actively pursues better conditions for the small business owner legislatively. Through our membership in this organization, we extend their benefits to us on to our membership with partners such as the ones listed below! We would like to extend a big “Thank You” to our current membership. It is their support that made it possible for us to join this wonderful group and be able to offer benefits through the following companies! If you’d like to join the ranks of our current membership, please print off a copy of our Investment Schedule which you will find if you click on the yellow banner entitled “2010 Investment Schedule” in the upper right-hand corner of this page. This website is just one example of how we strive to be a progressive Chamber. We do this so that we may offer the person doing research in either moving to Goodland or potential businesses interested in relocating to Goodland a way to “see” what we have to offer. To coin a popular phrase around here, we want our visitors to have as much information to encourage them to stay a night or stay a lifetime! The Chamber Board of Directors encourage you to look beyond this first page and discover what the Goodland area has to offer and the members we serve. The second page is home to valuable information and links to the City of Goodland, The Sherman County Historical Society, Unified School District 352, The Sherman County Economic Development, The Sherman County Convention & Visitor’s Bureau as well as the Realtors in the area.

Goodland’s Vibrant Senior Community

      From it's humble beginnings, in 1972, as a club organized to meet and share fellowship over a game of  cards, the 60+ Club soon blossomed into the beginning stages of what it is today.  By 1974 the 60+ Club was in full swing.   They officially organized, elected a board of directors, an activities director was hired and they were now meeting in the old library building (currently occupied by the Carnegie Arts Center).  Various fund raising activities, including their bean supper, were undertaken to raise money to fix up the old library building. 

   As the club gained strength they expanded their activities.  Soon hot meals were offered, along with activities, such as bingo, pitch & pinochle parties, pool tournaments, arts and crafts, for their members.

   With the growing number of members, the need for additional space and the desire to eliminate the steps they encountered at their present location, the board soon focused their attention to designing a new facility.  With the input of their members, the Architect and the Contractor the board soon had the design for their new building and fund raising efforts we set in motion.  The new building fund was established January 1983, with an anonymous donation of $10,000.  The project was well received and with the support of the members and the community, the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Goodland Senior Center was set for June 20, 1983.

   The new 5,000 sq ft building (1,900 sq ft recreation room, 1,800 sq ft dinning room, kitchen, large storage rooms, restrooms, offices) was a vast improvement over the 1,380 sq ft building they were presently occupying.  Rhoads Construction Co., Inc completed construction of the new Goodland Senior Center and the first meal served in the new facility was on October 20, 1983 with 147 members attending.  Dedication and open house was held on October 30, 1983 with an estimated crowd of 400 on hand.

   The Goodland Senior Center continues to provide a hot meal and a place for members to gather and share in each others companionship.  The Goodland Senior Center is open to all senior citizens.

For more information about the 60+ Club and the Goodland Senior Center call (785) 899-5082.
