Our Newest Chamber TEam Member
Welcome Nina Musante-Buehre
My husband, son and I moved into the Festus area in 2020. I retired in 2019 as an educator and counselor. Although I have enjoyed four years of not having any work responsibilities I felt like it was time to find a job that would be fun and interesting. I feel my previous work experience is a big contribution to my job here at the Chamber. My job as an educator and counselor required strong leadership skills, good communication skills and daily organizational skills. All things that I feel will help me here at the Chamber. During my personal time I continue to help my husband with the youth wrestling club we started in the Festus area during the 2021-2022 school year. I have had the opportunity to meet a lot of wonderful families. I also enjoy traveling with my mother and walking my two fur babies Oreo and Coco.
Welcome to The Twin City Area Chamber of Commerce
On behalf of the Twin City Area Chamber of Commerce, I'd like to welcome you. The Chamber of Commerce serves Festus, Crystal City and the surrounding area, a community rich in tradition, yet progressive.
The Chamber is over 275-members strong and allows you the opportunity to gain visibility and credibility with your fellow-members and the community. As a Chamber member, you’ll connect with other business leaders at events, networking opportunities and educational forums throughout the year. When you join, relocate or celebrate a landmark anniversary, we can help mark the occasion with a welcome ceremony and press release to local media.
The Chamber is proud of the varied and vibrant business districts that include Festus Main Street, Bailey Road in Crystal City, Truman Boulevard (Highway 61-67), Veterans Boulevard (Highway A) and the Gannon Drive loop. It’s a great setting for you.

We work hand-in-hand with the community by sponsoring wholesome activities like Twin City Days, a three-day community festival with lots of activities for all held the weekend after Labor Day in September. We also sponsor the Trick or Treat Spooktacular for children of all ages. The holiday season in the Twin Cities has been kicked off with the Chamber Christmas Parade since 1948. Floats and decorated motor units, marching bands, antique cars, dance and acrobatic troupes, VIPs, and of course, Santa Claus, all add to the event's ability to warm the cool night air on the Monday after Thanksgiving.
A ‘Great Place to Call Home' in the Heart of the Communities We Serve
Neighborhoods vary from those such as one-hundred-year-old homes along tree lined Mississippi Avenue to new Festus home developments sporting the latest designs. People move here to live and raise children in a small-town atmosphere that offers safety with many local conveniences that includes access to Interstate 55 for a quick commute to St. Louis. People remain here for the strong sense of community, as well as access to nationally-ranked schools, modern healthcare, and enjoyable leisurely activities at beautiful parks, challenging golf courses, over 50 restaurants, an eight-screen movie complex, and topnotch hotels for your visiting business associates, friends and family.
