A morning of connections at Meredith Village Savings Bank!

Morning Mixers give Chamber members a chance to catch up with familiar faces, meet other local professionals, and learn more about the businesses in our community.

We also appreciate everyone who joined us and helped make it a productive start to the day.

It’s that time of year. 🔔
The holidays are coming to downtown Exeter, and we’re getting ready for a season filled with local traditions, shopping, dining, the Festival of Trees, Holiday Parade, Holiday Block Party, Christmas Eve luminaries, and plenty of reasons to spend time downtown.
Local businesses can be part of it as a Bell Sponsor. For $150, your business name will be featured on a holiday bell in the Chamber office window on Water Street from November 23 through January 4, with additional recognition on Chamber social media and in our newsletter throughout the holiday season.
And mark your calendar for the Holiday Block Party on Thursday, December 3 from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. in downtown Exeter. More details are coming soon.
Reserve your bell at exeterarea.org or contact Renee at [email protected]

What says fall more than apples? 🍎
Rockie stopped by the Rotary Club of Exeter, NH - # 6324's apple sale fundraiser at the bandstand to support a fellow local organization and take in a little fall in Exeter.
From c***r and donuts to plenty of crisp apples, there were lots of seasonal favorites to choose from.
What’s your favorite local orchard? Tell us below. ↓

There’s more than one way to use your Chamber membership.

Maybe you want to meet a few new people at Speed Networking. Maybe an evening Business After Hours fits your schedule better.

Maybe you want to show up for a fellow member at a ribbon-cutting, learn something useful at our Community Needs & Local Impact Series, or start the day with a Morning Mixer.

Chamber involvement doesn’t mean attending everything. Find the opportunities that make sense for you, your business, and what you need right now.

Take a look at what’s coming up, pick one, and join us.

One last thank you for the 2026 Powder Keg B**r & Chili Festival!

Before we wrap up this year's festival, we have some winners to celebrate!

People's Choice B**r Winners:
🥇 1st Place: Exeter Brewing
🥈 2nd Place: Fat Hen
🥉 3rd Place: North Country Hard C***r

People's Choice Chili Winners:
🥇 1st Place: Exeter Brewing
🥈 2nd Place: Fat Hen
🥉 3rd Place: Thirsty Moose Tap House

Congratulations to all six winning entries, especially Exeter Brewing for taking first place in both categories!

Thank you to every brewery, c***ry, chili competitor, food vendor, and participant who helped bring this year's festival to Swasey Parkway. To Matty & The Penders for providing the music, and to our volunteers who gave their time before, during, and after the event, we appreciate all the work that goes into making this happen.

We're also grateful to our event partners, Exeter Parks & Recreation, for working alongside the Chamber to bring Powder Keg to downtown Exeter.

A special thank you to M&T Bank for underwriting this year's festival and to Newburyport Bank for its generous support.

And finally, thank you to everyone who purchased a ticket, sampled the b**r and chili, voted for their favorites, and spent part of their Saturday with us.

We couldn't do this without the businesses, volunteers, sponsors, and community partners who help make Powder Keg happen each year.

Thank you for another year of Powder Keg!

Sometimes businesses need to take a break from Chamber membership.

Priorities shift, budgets change, and sometimes the timing just isn’t right.

But when you’re ready to come back, we’ll be ready to welcome you.
We’re happy to welcome Austin17House back to the Exeter Area Chamber community!

Austin17 House is a youth and family community center offering a safe place to drop in, make friends, and get a free meal.

We’re glad to have them back and look forward to reconnecting them with the businesses and organizations that make up our Chamber community.

Welcome back, Austin17 House!
