COVID-19 and Current Lafayette Chamber Events
The Lafayette Chamber of Commerce, like most organizations that put on events, is taking a measured response to the threat of COVID-19 as it relates to gatherings of people. We are watching this outbreak closely and are evaluating protocol on a day to day basis.
Public Health Officials are offering guidance intended to slow the spread of the virus. Contra Costa Health Services has recommended that canceling or postponing all mass gatherings with 50 people or more.
We along with the CCHS understand these recommendations will impact all of our lives and may be difficult to implement, but we are following their guidelines as best we can at this time.
Please refer to the attached information provided by Contra Costa Health Services:
The CCHS recommends to Cancel Large Community Events
- Cancel or postpone large gatherings such as concerts, sporting events, celebrations, conventions, religious services and community events where 50 or more people are within arm’s length of each other.
- Cancel or postpone events for or attended by older adults or others who are at higher risk for severe illness.
- If a large event does take place, organizers should follow California Department of Public Health.
Please note that we have postponed the Citizen of the Year Dinner until July 10. Janet and Rick Cronk understand and have graciously agreed to the new date.
Our March Mixer that was scheduled for March 18 has been cancelled along with our Social Media Workshop that was scheduled for the evening of March 11 at the Lafayette Library.
Currently we will go forth with the following Ribbon Cuttings:
- Edward Jones Financial - Fred Steingraf, Thursday, March 12, 5:30pm-6:30pm, 3685 Mt. Diablo Blvd. Ste 16. RSVP here >>
- 9Round Lafayette, Thursday, March 19, 5:30pm-6:30pm, 3561 Mt. Diablo Blvd. RSVP here >>

However, please refer to
our website as we will make updates and adjustments as needed. The ribbon cuttings are smaller and usually not large gatherings.
