About the Chamber
MISSION
STATEMENT
Our mission is to promote a business environment
within the Desert Foothills communities that
enhances economic vitality and improves the
quality of life for all.
WELCOME STATEMENT
Welcome to the Carefree-Cave Creek Chamber
of Commerce web site. We hope that you will
find this web site informative and useful
in discovering all that Carefree and Cave
Creek have to offer.
Our membership is comprised of a majority
of the local businesses which, working hand-in-hand
with local government entities, are committed
to promoting a dynamic and vital economy that
serves the needs of our community.
It is vitally important that we support those
who give of their time, effort, and resources
in making the Desert Foothills such a vibrant
and captivating community.
It is often asked what makes this region feel
so distinct and remote, while at the same
time so close to the Phoenix metropolitan
area?
The answer lies in a unique combination of
geography, climate, and a mix of people who
live, work and play with a certain philosophy
of life. The Carefree-Cave Creek area is surrounded
to the North and East by the Tonto National
Forest -- a vast, undeveloped preserve --
which makes for incredible sunsets and sunrises,
a cohabitation with animals and critters of
all kinds, and a calling to outdoor activity
which can be truly enjoyed year-round.
When you combine this with 300 days of sunshine,
some of the best golf, tennis and hiking available
in the country, and a warm and welcoming community,
it is easy to see why this is truly a unique
and inviting destination for visitors and
residents alike. Thank you for taking the
time to discover the Carefree-Cave Creek area,
and we welcome you to all we have to offer.
