About After Hours Networking Events

After Hours events are held on the second Wednesday of each month, starting in May and ending in November or December. The events start at 6:00 P.M. and usually end no later than 7:30 P.M.

Upon arriving, attendees visit the sign-in table to receive a name tag. Everyone is encouraged to bring business cards to assist with networking. There will be introductions at the start of the event, giving everyone a chance to talk about their business and latest news, followed by food, fun, and of course, networking!

Visitors: Those joining us as a non-member guest are welcome to come to one event to see what the Chamber is all about. You'll be given an application to take home with you during your visit. If you have been to an after-hours event and would like to come to another, membership is required.

Annual Members Dinner

A highlight of our year, Chamber members gather on the second Wednesday of each January for an elegant evening of fine dining, awards, and of course, networking!  
 2021-2022 Annual Dinner Update: Due to COVID-19, the Chamber Board has assessed that holding an indoor dinner event in winter is, again, not feasible. The Board is planning to hold the event in late Spring 2022 as the weather warms and hopefully, the COVID-19 situation improves. Check back here, our News section, and on our Facebook page for updates.
