Auburn Chamber of Commerce
Bordering Worcester to the southwest, Auburn has much to offer its business and residential community. Incorporated in 1778, the town was primarily a farming community until the early 1900s when industry in nearby Worcester was booming and Auburn became a burgeoning suburb with residents who commuted to Worcester. Today, Auburn’s population of more than 16,200 enjoys a community that offers convenient access to just about anywhere. The Massachusetts Turnpike has an Auburn exchange, and the town is near Interstates 290 and 395. State Routes 12 and 20 both pass through Auburn.

Auburn is a favorite destination for shoppers from all across New England, thanks in large measure to the Auburn Mall, with anchors Macy’s and Sears and the many plazas along Routes 12 and 20. For history buffs, the town features a monument commemorating one of this century’s most momentous events. In 1926, Dr. Robert Goddard launched the first liquid-fuel-propelled rocket in Auburn, an accomplishment that represented the first step toward space exploration.
The town’s strong and active Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to nurturing Auburn’s many strengths. Initiatives include fostering relationships among citizens, businesses, the educational community, and local/regional governmental agencies.

The Central Mass South area offers the ambience of small, friendly towns and comfortable suburban neighborhoods that make for quiet New England living. By far the greatest treasure of the Central Mass South area is the people. New Englanders believe in a stable government, old-fashioned work ethics, and a love of the land. From the stoic early settler James Dennison, who came to the area in 1728, to the Wells family and their recreation of an 1830s era town in Old Sturbridge Village, they take pride in the forbearance and creativity exhibited by the area’s people.
Wachusett Area Chamber of Commerce
The Wachusett Area Chamber of Commerce serves the towns of Boylston, Holden, Paxton, Princeton, Rutland, Sterling and West Boylston. The Chamber was formed as a volunteer organization made up of business and professional people dedicated to the economic well-being of its service region.
