The Annual Awards Gala is our premier event where we reflect on the previous year, recognize the Chamber’s outgoing Chairman of the Board, and honor our annual award recipients.  This semi-formal event recognizes the Business of the Year, Nonprofit of the Year, Community Leader of the Year, Young Professional of the Year, Business Leader of the Year, Ambassador or Volunteer of the Year, and other community awards.  Attendees also enjoy entertainment and a silent auction.  It is an excellent chance to have an elegant evening and build networks.

The event is designed to demonstrate the progress of the Chamber and Chamber Foundation, present awards to outstanding community and business leaders, and to provide a social atmosphere for networking.

Every member of the Chamber and public is invited. Also, invited to attend are Mayor and City Council, County Commissioners, local delegation, Board of Education members, other representatives of the local government and school system, and many of our community’s top employers.
