Copperas Cove Chamber Schedules Business After Hours Event for March 26

The Copperas Cove Chamber of Commerce has lined up a spring events calendar that kicks off this week with its monthly Business After Hours networking session, scheduled for Thursday, March 19, from 5:30 to 7 p.m.

Local professionals are invited to attend the March Business After Hours networking event, hosted through the Copperas Cove Chamber of Commerce, which provides an opportunity for business owners and community leaders to connect and build professional relationships. The host location is to be announced by the chamber.

The networking series runs monthly through the spring. The Chamber is also hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Copperas Cove Senior Center from 2 to 3 p.m. Monday, March 16, at 2400 Walker Pl Blvd, an event that will celebrate the center and highlight services available to senior residents in the community. April brings another Business After Hours, this one hosted at Comfort Suites of Copperas Cove on April 23, also from 5:30 to 7 p.m.

Beyond Chamber programming, the Copperas Cove Parks and Recreation Department is inviting the public to celebrate the season at the 2026 Spring Fest on Saturday, March 28, from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. at City Park, 1206 W Avenue B.

The spring calendar builds toward the Chamber's flagship outdoor event. The Parks and Recreation Department is also hosting the 2026 Easter Egg Round Up on Saturday, April 4, from 10 a.m. to noon at City Park. Then in May, the 46th Annual Rabbit Fest runs May 14 through May 17 at Copperas Cove City Park, one year after the 45th edition drew the community to the same grounds in 2025.

April 7 adds a midday option to the calendar: Bite Club visits Hot To Tot from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., the Chamber's recurring lunch-and-connect series. Hot To Tot Texas, a local business, recently celebrated its own grand opening with a Chamber ribbon cutting.

The Chamber's spring programming comes as it also marks a milestone year. A 2026 Annual Chamber Awards Gala and Fundraiser is planned as an evening celebrating 70 years of the organization's work in Copperas Cove.

The Copperas Cove EDC, a close Chamber partner, holds the mission "to proactively support the creation of jobs and investment in Copperas Cove by recruiting new businesses, assisting existing businesses and planning for opportunities." As of January 20, 2026, the population of permanent residents of the City of Copperas Cove was estimated at 41,669 persons, a community base the Chamber's spring schedule aims squarely to serve.
