ANNUAL AWARDS DINNER Annual Dinner logo

 The Annual Awards Dinner will be held on March 24, 2011 at the Magnuson Grand Hotel & Conference Center.  The theme for this year's event will be "Spring Into the Future".  In addition to being a special awards presentation night and recognition of new officers, plans call for a fabulous dinner, live entertainment and a "business-to-business" Silent Auction.  The Auction items will be limited (and we hope wonderful) and donors will receive special recognition in the program.  If you have an item to donate (gift certificates are welcomed) or would like to put together a special basket, please contact the Chamber office.  Dinner tickets will go on sale in February, but in the meantime, you may register online and be billed later by clicking on the "64th ANNUAL CHAMBER DINNER" on the scrolling calendar or Click here to REGISTER ONLINE.
