Chamber News

Let's REUNITE at The Chamber's 79th Annual Meeting!

In a new format this year, come celebrate the successes of our business community from 2021, hear about the amazing progress on our community Big Bold Ideas initiative and get a preview of the exciting developments for 2022.

Not quite ready to come back together in person? This year will offer a virtual/live-stream option to include the full program, networking opportunity with others online, and a gift card to a local brunch destination to use whenever you like. Be sure to register for the virtual option if this is your preference.

This year's event will begin at 9 a.m. with an action-packed, 75-minute program, followed by a delicious brunch and networking reception (complete with champagne toast 🍾).

All participants will be invited to contribute an item that captures a success or memory from 2021 to go in a time capsule to be opened at a later date. Additional details will be sent to registrants.

Let's get REUNITED as we celebrate, connect, and look ahead.
