Planning is now underway for the Central Maryland Chamber’s annual
Spirit of Community Awards Gala
, which will be held at Live! Event Center at Live! Casino & Hotel on Monday, March 30, 2020. As in past years, this year’s dinner will recognize public safety officers and educators who serve our region, as well as a military service member of the year from Fort Meade.
This is a truly feel-good evening, and past recipients have told us how much they enjoyed the caliber of the event and the recognition from the business community.
