Girard is famous for Doc's Just Off 66 (formerly Doc's Soda Fountain). Enjoy camping at Hidden Ridge at nearby Otter Lake. Girard is located on the 1926 Alignment of Route 66 (now Illinois Route 4). We invite you to experience our community. Our purpose is to serve the Girard area and promote business growth.

The Girard Chamber of Commerce is an association of businesses and individuals organized to promote an economic environment wherein Girard businesses, non-profit institutions, government and citizens can actively work together to promote orderly growth and prosperity.

Business After Hours is a networking event designed for Chamber members and invited guests to meet and build relationships with current and prospective customers.

These events are sponsored by Chamber members. It gives them an opportunity to promote their business and showcase their products and/or services. Join us as we celebrate Girard's business community!

Our organization is open to businesses, organizations, and individuals interested in our community.
