Are you coming next week?
Our Annual Celebration is next Wednesday and I'm looking forward to seeing many of you there. We are switching things up this year and changing the location to the Spaulding Center for Transportation. The evening begins at 5:30 p.m. with a social hour. This is prime time to catch up with your friends and to meet new people. You do not need to be a chamber member to attend, and we invite everyone to join us.
Whether you come to the event looking to make contacts that could lead to a new job, to find potential clients, to network with other business owners, to meet other young professionals, or to simply enjoy a night out this event is a good time to do all of those things. There will be plenty of hor d'oeurves and drinks for everyone. Dress is business casual.
We will announce the recipients of Business of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year, Economic Impact Award, and many more. The award presentation will begin at 6:30 p.m.
If you're able to join us, please go online and
