The Chamber demonstrates the hospitable character of the community through participation in events that include community and visitors from all over the world.  Wilder Days, commemorating renowned children’s author, Laura Ingalls Wilder whose family lived and wrote in the Mansfield community, is the primary event that the Chamber supports.  In addition, there is an annual Easter Egg Hunt in the spring and a Hometown Christmas celebration in December. The Chamber supports the Mansfield Freedom Celebration as well.

Mansfield has been ‘home’ to some illustrious citizens of our country.  Laura Ingalls Wilder and her family lived and worked here for many years.  The books the family wrote and which have been written about them give readers a personal connection with the pioneer life in our country in the 1800′s.   Carl Mays played baseball with a stellar career after growing up at Mansfield.  His story has been largely neglected over the years, but family and friends in Mansfield were influential in getting Mays named to the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame.  A book has been written about his baseball career with stunning statistics.  in 2010, a memorial was dedicated at the town square with family from all over the country there to observe and celebrate.  Leaders in the Chamber were involved in getting this memorial funded and installed.
