    Business After Hours

    Looking for a great way to connect with fellow Chamber members in a relaxed setting? Business After Hours events offer just that — a casual opportunity to build relationships, make new contacts, and grow your business network.

    Hosted periodically by Chamber members, these open house–style gatherings typically last about two hours in the early evening. Enjoy refreshments provided by the host, casual conversation, and even the chance to win a raffle prize or two!

    No registration is required — just drop by and join us.
