The Greater Bluefield area is a beautiful,
mountainous community, straddling the borders of West Virginia and Virginia.
Here the small town feeling mixes with progressive business, excellent medical,
educational and cultural facilities and thriving industry to create an ideal
place to live, work, raise a family and retire.
On behalf of the Greater Bluefield Chamber of Commerce
and the friendly residents of our beautiful area...
The Greater Bluefield Chamber of Commerce has either
been at the forefront, or played a key role, in progressive projects in
the Bluefields for almost nine decades. Recent accomplishments include the
re-opening of the Greater Bluefield Community Center, and construction of
the East River Mountain overlook. The Community Center is a beehive of activity
providing the young, the old and the infirmed with a place to socialize
or exercise; and the East River Mountain Overlook affords visitors a breath-taking
view of the area during any of its four colorful seasons. Tops among the
Chamber's regular attractions is the biennial Bluefield Coal Show which
has been recognized as the best show of its kind in the U.S. Other popular
sponsorships include the Better Living Show and the annual Mountain Festival.
These sponsorships bring visitors from far and wide, and keep the Bluefields
as the hub for activities in the multi-state region. The Chamber will continue
to provide the area with leadership and vision into the new millennium as
"The Voice of Business in the Bluefields."
